DANIEL NG

Digital Project Manager Black Rook Digital

Over the past 20+ years, I've worked with some of Australia's most recognised organisations — Australia Post, Bupa, IBM, Telstra, AMP, AXA, Mastercard, Western Union, QBE and the City of Melbourne.

I've managed and delivered projects ranging from large digital transformations and complex data migrations to micro single-page websites, using both waterfall and agile practices. Along the way, I've also founded and co-founded several start-ups.
