About

  • I jointly started the UK operation of Just-Eat.co.uk in March 2006 as Sales Director. I have led large scale sales teams in a corporate as well as start up sales environment, developing and implementing successful sales strategies in highly competitive markets.
  • During the last 3 years I have led a team that has now grown to 50 people in the UK operation of Just-Eat.co.uk and established myself as an authority in the UK quick service restaurant sector.
  • Prior to Just-Eat.co.uk I worked at Coca-Cola Enterprises for 8 years in a wide variety of commercial sales roles including the UK restaurant channel.
  • I joined Coca-Cola directly from university where I obtained a Law & Business Degree (found the Law part of my degree a bit dull, I should have studied Geography and Politics!), in 2004 I received the Account Manager of the Year award for my work in the UK restaurant channel principally for the work I did with Nando’s and Pret A Manger.
  • I have extensive experience in leading strategic, operational and commercial implementation in tough environments.

    Its great to know something more about you, David. I have seen how you make it and keep it going since I join Just-Eat. Every day I feel I am growing as Just-Eat grows ervery day. Its a really fantastic feeling and I think that is just what life all about. Its my honor to be a member of Just-Eat.

    David, it was a great pleasure meeting you today. Regardless of outcome, I think your concept and approach will succeed in the Canadian market and that success is not far behind. I thank you once again for your insight and hospitality!

    P.S. Does my name have to be David to work there? :)
