Gareth Redshaw

Snr Director - Mega Vendor Optimisation & Negotiation, Livingstone Group

Gareth Redshaw is Livingstone Group’s Senior Director of Vendor Optimization & Negotiation. He has been in the industry for over 15 years with a consistent focus on helping clients approach licensing contracts with a lean approach to licensing spend combined with a responsible approach to procurement and contract management. During this time, he has had the opportunity to help some of the world’s largest businesses plan and execute a mega vendor negotiation.

The Pop in Your Job:
I'm driven by the challenge of helping organisations navigate the complexities of major vendor relationships, particularly with Microsoft. In an environment where traditional negotiation tactics are becoming less effective, I find it rewarding to uncover hidden opportunities for optimisation and cost savings. My passion lies in empowering clients to regain control over their renewals, ensuring they achieve maximum value from their investments.
