Top SchoolOliver Binns is a seasoned digital and data leader with 11 years of experience driving strategic turnarounds and operational improvement across international industrial businesses. Currently Chief Digital Officer at Vesuvius, he previously served as Chief Data Officer at Tata Steel in Europe where his initiatives eliminated 50,000 annual working hours and €15m in direct costs while accelerating data availability from months to days. He combines a strategic mindset—having led £4bn asset evaluations and multi‑billion investment planning—with hands‑on delivery of Agile/DevOps data platforms and cross‑functional data quality programmes. A Cambridge-educated scientist, Oliver is comfortable translating complex technical signals into clear executive decisions and practical, visualised insights. He is also a committed coach and team builder who develops technical specialists into business-focused practitioners.
