Hello! I'm Oliver

A Product Manager with over a decade of experience crafting impactful digital solutions

We’re often too confined by outdated structures and ideas of what work and leadership should look like. Colouring outside the lines isn’t something to fear, it’s necessary if we want to challenge the status quo and build better ways forward. True leadership isn’t about control, it’s about thoughtfulness, empathy and genuine care for the people we work with and the world we live in.
With open minds, grounded leadership and curiosity, I believe we can create products and workplaces that are driven by kindness, creativity, and connection.

I'm Oliver, a Product Manager with a background in frontend development and design. My journey started in motorsport engineering, before trading asphalt for pixels and finding a love for crafting digital experiences that feel intuitive, human and joyful. Over the past decade, I've led digital product teams across SaaS, startups and social impact organisations, working with brands like Toyota, Volkswagen and many emerging ventures.

I specialise in scaling products, modernising legacy systems, building user-centred strategies and leading cross-functional teams to create things people actually want to use. Good design, to me, isn’t just beautiful, it’s meaningful. It's about creating experiences that empower people and make life a little better. Thanks for stopping by. If you share a passion for thoughtful design, product leadership, or making good ideas real, I'd love to connect.

Words From Others...

"I had the pleasure of working with Oliver at Sesimi, where he brought a ton of energy, curiosity and initiative with himself. He has a great passion for product and a sharp eye for user experience, always advocating for what’s best for the end user while keeping the broader business goals in mind.

Oliver wasn’t afraid to ask the hard questions, explore bold ideas, or dive into problems with both creativity and rigour. Whether it was driving discussions around UX or stepping up to solve ambiguous product problems, Oliver consistently brought thoughtfulness and drive to the table.

He was driven, empathetic and product-minded through and through. I’d happily work with him again."
