After returning to Australia from a long stint overseas, I used this period to take limited-duration contracts in various companies - using my deep change management and PMO skills to assist mostly large ERP implementations. Another skill I developed in this time was supplier relationship management, working in the global procurement team of a major bank.

Designed the supplier relationship methodology, together with 3rd party consulting partner Cap Gemini, for a global ERP rollout including one of the first e B2B products on the market (Ariba). Travelled the world explaining features and benefits of the new technology to local businesses.

In the time of the eCommerce explosion I took a role here so that I could learn how to program B2B and B2C tools in some of the new tools coming on to the market, such as Vignette and Broadvision (back then they were cutting edge!). I designed the storyboards for webshops for various clients and trained their staff in content management.
