Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRob Silverton is a seasoned technology and product leader with roughly 14–20 years of experience building customer-focused digital, data and AI capabilities across startups, scale-ups and public-sector organisations in the UK and New Zealand. As Head of Data at Network for Learning he created the organisation's first data strategy, secured investment, and built a platform that processes ~5TB/day and 500k events/sec to deliver national-scale insights for education. He has a track record of standing up functions—from product and design to data governance—turning manual reporting into automated BI, and negotiating commercial contracts to unlock outcome-focused delivery. Comfortable shifting between hands-on technical delivery (from early web and game development to SaaS) and executive leadership, he’s led national cybersecurity and managed WiFi rollouts that now serve ~1M users. Equally at home in entrepreneurial settings (co-founding a software company and serving as CTO of a social startup) and large public organisations, Rob blends strategic vision with pragmatic execution. He brings a human-centric, purpose-led orientation to data and product work, with a knack for translating complex technical platforms into measurable policy and operational impact.
