For over 25 years, Paul Rutherford has pursued two passions;  working with colleagues and Clients  to solve business problems,  and helping others to develop themselves, both professionally and personally.

Discovering solutions to people problems

Throughout his career,  Paul has built and led teams – from two people in one office to 150 staff across 16 countries.

He served his apprenticeship in communication agencies, creating  campaigns for Technology and Business Service blue-chip corporations.

He moved Client-side in 1992, as Director of Communications EMEA then General Manager, Corporate Sales UK for Xerox, followed by VP Systems Marketing at IBM.

Paul was subsequently Chief Marketing Officer for VC-backed Clearswift, the global leader in email security, then GM and Coach to several technology start-ups and turn-arounds.

Most recently, he was a main board director of EMEA Executive Search firm Beaumont Karlson.

Married to the most patient woman on the planet, Paul is father to three children who regularly remind him that there’s more to life than business and blogging.
