Why Liltec? Because experienced technology leadership should be grounded in more than opinions.

Liltec brings together decades of executive experience, a proven track record of delivering measurable business outcomes, and a straightforward approach to technology, risk and transformation. Here's the experience, approach and results behind the advice.

The Liltec way

We start with the business, not the technology.
We separate technology problems from business problems that happen to look like technology problems.
We challenge assumptions when the evidence says they need challenging.
We prioritise outcomes over activity, and commercial value over technology for its own sake.
We make complex technology, cyber and risk issues understandable to executives and boards.
We leave organisations stronger than we found them, with better capability, clearer accountability and less dependence on any one person.

The experience behind the advice

One accountable executive
Technology, cyber, risk and business strategy rarely operate in isolation. Ken has held responsibility across all of them simultaneously, including technology and enterprise cyber security across four countries and four regulatory environments, with full P&L accountability.
A repeatable commercial playbook
Across three sectors, Ken delivered annualised ICT cost reductions of 42%, 37% and 25%. The approach was consistent: redesign the operating model, consolidate vendors, strengthen governance and then optimise cost. The objective was a more capable, accountable and commercially sustainable technology function.
AI that delivers outcomes
Ken led the deployment of Agentic AI across customer experience operations, delivering a 65% productivity improvement alongside measurable improvements in NPS. The objective was not an AI experiment; it was a business problem, a measured intervention and a commercial outcome.
Board-level cyber governance
Ken founded and chaired a Cyber Risk Committee and presented directly to boards, making technology and cyber risk part of executive governance rather than a compliance exercise. Good governance gives directors and executives a clear view of risk, decisions and actions.

I worked closely with Ken as Group CEO of Junior Adventures Group, with responsibility for the business across Australia, New Zealand, Ireland and the UK. What impressed me most was Ken's ability to operate at a genuinely enterprise level while still understanding the practical realities of delivery.

Ken understood that technology was ultimately there to enable the strategy of the business. He led the creation of a global technology function across four countries, removed significant duplication and complexity, and delivered a 42% annualised reduction in global IT spend while improving security maturity and system reliability.

Just as importantly, Ken was able to bring CEOs, executives and the Board with him. He communicated complex technology and risk issues in a way that enabled confident business decisions, and he established the governance and accountability needed to support a growing organisation.

He was particularly strong in balancing transformation with commercial discipline. Whether it was consolidating our technology environment, strengthening cyber risk management, improving data capability or significantly reducing our licensing and MSP costs, Ken consistently focused on measurable business outcomes.

I regarded Ken as a trusted member of the executive leadership team, not simply as the technology leader. I would have no hesitation recommending him to any organisation looking for a commercially astute technology executive capable of leading significant transformation at scale.

"Every person I've placed with Ken says the same thing: he's a great leader to work for."

I have known Ken for about 7 years now, and over this time I have worked with him in a few capacities. I first met him when he was the standout candidate in a Head of Technology search I ran for a client in 2019. Since then I've worked alongside him on a number of occasions, helping him build out different teams he's gone on to lead.

What's stood out to me over that time is how deliberately Ken thinks about technology as a business function, not just an engineering one. Ken has never treated technology decisions in isolation from the business case behind them. He knows exactly what he needs from a hire and why, which is not always a common trait, even among senior technology leaders. He also brings a genuine spirit of partnership to how he works with people around him, including recruiters like me who are technically on the outside of his organisation.

Every person I've placed with Ken says the same thing: he's a great leader to work for. He has a natural, easygoing style of communication which is easy to relate to. One final thing I would highlight is that I've always found Ken straightforward to deal with, he says what he means and follows through on it.
