“When I went for my interview at The Telegraph one of the people interviewing me that day was Alex - and I knew then I wanted the job as I thought it would be an amazing experience working beside him. And I was right - I learned an enormous amount from him and he was a real pleasure to work beside. Smart, funny, incredibly knowledgeable about product, able to make hard decisions, justify them and stick to them, a stickler for detail yet never losing site of the big picture. He has superb powers of persuasion that help him steer and deliver superb products - able to pull relevant data and numbers seemingly out of the air when the situation required, often wrapping the whole argument up in a fantastically insightful extended metaphor that made everyone in the room say - Ah, now I get it'/ On top of all this he cares deeply about design and the user experience, and the customer, and is able to lead teams to execute high quality work against tight deadlines. I hope I get the chance to work with him again in the future, ”
