It's my first job interview in more than eight years. Even though it's a video interview, I'm still keen to impress. When I log on, my interviewer, whose name I didn't catch, looks relaxed and friendly.

He takes a while to process what I'm saying, and his facial expression remains unchanged.

Having started his career as a project manager, Redmond delivered major initiatives for Xerox and Aon that touched on the implementation of technology. As he increasingly focused on IT systems, his career trajectory changed, saying: "I blended large-scale transformations with IT early in my career, so that's why I'm a technologist today." After working as head of strategy for brewer SAB Miller, in November 2016 Redmond joined FTSE 250 firm PageGroup - often best known by its Michael Page brand.
