My approach

I bridge the gap between the service desk and the platform.

  1. 01

    Understand the operation

    Start with the users, teams, hand-offs and controls — not a generic template.

  2. 02

    Build it hands-on

    Configure, integrate, test and document the solution with the people who will run it.

  3. 03

    Leave it maintainable

    Keep the design clear, the automation traceable and the operating model practical.

About Daniel

Consulting shaped by operations.

I am an independent IT Service Management and Jira Service Management consultant based in Cheshire, working with organisations across the UK and DACH.

My background spans IT operations, service delivery and service transition. That means I understand the pressure behind a queue, the risk behind a change and why the “perfect” process fails if nobody can operate it. I work directly with service owners, support teams and technical specialists to turn messy requirements into clear ITSM processes and robust Jira solutions.

I am most useful where practical platform work and service-management judgement need to meet.

together?
