I’m pleased to announce that Iain Patterson will be returning to GDS in the new year as Director of Common Technology Services (CTS).
Iain was seconded to DVLA in 2013 where he was Chief Technology Officer - leading their digital transformation.
In this video Iain explains more about his work at DVLA:
In his new role at GDS Iain will be responsible for enabling the provision of consistent, high quality workplace IT for civil servants across government. This will deliver benefits through better, more secure IT, more joined-up working across government, and the ability to implement changes faster and at a lower cost.
I’d like to extend thanks to Andy Beale for not just starting this project, but for taking it back on over the summer, listening to customers, building strong relationships and driving it towards the successful spending review result. Andy, as Deputy CTO, remain on the CTS board.
Executive Director of GDS Stephen Foreshew-Cain says:
I’m thrilled to welcome Iain back to GDS. As our leadership team grows, it’s great to have people with as much expertise and experience as Iain continuing to help us transform government.
