Nicholas Clark
Background
Experienced analytics leader with a broad profile. Chartered Financial Analyst with additional post-graduate degrees in Bioinformatics and Economics. Avid reader and believer in the value of strong processes and continued education. Strong inter-personal and collaboration skills, extensive stakeholder management experience as well as a glass-half full attitude. 10+ years of professional experience with quantitative methods and data science, including 3+ years of data science leadership experience with HR responsibility.
Motivation
This will be my 8th year mentoring and the 5th under the DDSA Mentoring Programme. I would like to continue to help others benefit from my learnings (successes as well as failures), such that others won’t have to reinvent the wheel. I will guide you to examine the assumptions underlying your approach to life and career. Good questions can carry you far, and more often than not you will find that others have been in your place many times before. Together we will identify what is important for you and jointly explore the best ways for you to find the optimal solution(s).
