Scott’s education career began in 1997 as Head of Student Administration at the Robert Gordon University where he also completed a MSc in E-Business. Digital transformation has been a strong focus for him ever since.

He progressed through several roles of increasing seniority before establishing his own digital consultancy in 2013 working with HE and FE clients. In his most recent permanent post, he was Pro Vice Chancellor (Corporate Development) and Registrar at the University of Central Lancashire.
