Duncan Daines
Group Head of Engagement / CMO
I am a proven, competent professional with 27 years’ experience of working with Chief Executive's and Business Leaders in a variety of different roles to deliver change initiatives and growth in key segments.
Key achievements to date within my current role:
- working with the CEO & COO to develop and deliver a post COVID-19 focus for growth strategy leading to a 33% ($55.1M) increase in GP for FY22
- leading an organisational change programme supporting the focus strategy resulting in three SBUs
- leading and winning a c£65M 7 year contract in a key growth sector for Gama Aviation's Special Mission SBU
- leading the company’s approach to GHG reduction including devising Project Element Six, the pathway to net Zero
To achieve this, and by my nature, I like to form teams, binding complementary skills around me to deliver complex programmes. My leadership style has been described as ‘quietly driven’ reflecting a tendency to actively listen, ask pertinent questions to cross check my understanding and then formulate a view with my team on a particular problem or challenge. Working, as I have with Executive teams, I recognise the need for managing upwards and continually communication during change programmes.
