Doug Field OBE
Doug Field OBE
T.E.A.M Director - Ipswich
Doug is a leader who speaks fluent balance sheet and plain English. After learning the ropes by untangling shoeboxes of receipts for local traders, he rose to steer the £400m, 3,500 employee East of England Co-op — first as CFO, then Joint CEO, and finally CEO— delivering a £5m profit turnaround, unlocking £5m+ in savings and implementing data-driven decision making.
Today, Doug brings that pragmatism to MyBigSky. As a T.E.A.M. Director, he distils complexity into clear, data-backed choices, drawing on 30+ years across PwC, Christie Group plc, and the Co-op to spot both hidden risks and overlooked opportunities. His £30 million funding wins prove he can speak banker, while an OBE for services to business shows he can speak government too.
Beyond the boardroom, Doug’s impact stretches into the community as a volunteer director with Green Light Trust, Suffolk Chamber of Commerce and other regional causes. Expect sleeves-rolled-up insight, an enviable network, and just enough wit to make even the toughest balance-sheet chat fun. When he isn’t sparking growth, you’ll catch him swapping leadership tips for his Paddleboard on the rivers of Suffolk.
