Summary
Matt Hetherington is an experienced IT leader with over 30 years in enterprise technology, currently serving as EU HUB IT Manager for BAT and previously managing UK IT service delivery and global VIP support functions. He blends hands-on full-stack development familiarity (C#, .NET, Blazor, JS/TS, React) with strong operational delivery—running multi-site teams, £5m+ budgets, vendor negotiations and cloud-driven infrastructure simplification. Known for building high-performing teams and white-glove executive support processes, he excels at translating business needs into secure, auditable IT solutions and successful global rollouts. Matt is equally comfortable in strategy and R&D—evaluating emerging tech, driving automation and defining best practices that improve customer satisfaction and ROI. Colleagues describe him as an “IT nerd” who pre-empts issues through analytical foresight and fosters talent across local and global environments. Based in England, he combines corporate-scale delivery experience with developer instincts from his GitHub-backed full-stack work.
