New Job

Most of you have heard already but I'm leaving SITA, Monday 24th (in Madrid office) is my last day.

Big surprise I know, but I've been in one place too long. This is only the second time in my life I've changed company; Eland and SITA were corporate takeovers. I haven't really moved of my own accord since I left Irish Life to join VTI in 1995.

The company I am going to is OpenJaw Technologies, a Dublin based travel technology company. I start there on 1st of August.

I'm going to miss many people in SITA. The people are the best thing about the company. SITA have some of the most professional, intelligent, knowledgable and helpful people I've met in my entire career. I'll miss them, but the travel technology sector is so small, so I'm sure we'll meet again!

Anyway, that is the real reason for the drinks in the Purty on Friday, my goodbye to the SITA/Eland/VTI people.
