Nigel Clifford, Chief Executive Officer
Nigel brings a significant depth of relevant leadership experience to ProcServe gained from previous CEO positions in complex public and private software companies, including most recently Micro Focus, a FTSE 250 provider of software development and testing tools. Prior to that he led Symbian to become the world's leading smartphone operating system, eventually selling and integrating the company into Nokia in 2008. Before Symbian Clifford grew and then sold Tertio Telecoms Ltd, a privately owned global telecoms software company, to Evolving Systems in 2004.
Having previously worked as CEO of a major NHS Trust in Scotland, Clifford also brings extensive public sector experience to the position. This experience was built upon a strong foundation of procurement, strategy and operational expertise gained through various roles at BT and Cable & Wireless.
Nigel has a degree from Cambridge University and an MBA from Strathclyde University. He is also a non-executive director of Anite plc, the leading provider of wireless and travel solutions.

David played a lead role in the acquisition and subsequent integration process of Impaq Business Solutions in 2007 and continues to provide support to ProcServe's current M&A opportunities.

During his four years at PA Consulting, David played a key role in challenging internal processes that led to efficiencies in budgeting, internal controls and financial reporting - however, David's most notable achievements were in support of the bid teams in relation to pre-sales pricing, project delivery planning, assessment of tax implications and corporate structuring, with a prime example being the Zanzibar bid, which ultimately led to the formation of ProcServe.
Following graduation from University, where David obtained a BCom Accountancy degree (Cum Laude), he went on to complete an Honours qualification in four subjects, namely Accountancy, Audit, Management Accountancy and Tax. David then obtained both public and private sector accounting experience at Deloitte & Touché (now Deloitte) as an auditor, where he completed the final stage of his qualification as a Chartered Accountant.
