Russell Scanlon

Business Director

My friend Juan Carlos Frietman is simply the god of all things IT - I cannot tell you how much I relied on him over many many years when my (this proves how long we've known each other...) Blackberry threw a wobbly, laptop didn't work, needed a new tech solution rolling out to a national account, had email outage 5 mins before submitting a bid etc. etc. and he was ALWAYS there at the end of the phone and he just gets it sorted. He's a wizard of tech, comms and solutions. #IT #tech #strategytoexecution #implementations #rollout

Robert Vernalls

Juan Carlos is an asset to any business. He is a self starter, able to represent a business, and is always looking to expand his areas of expertise. He is strong technically in a range of IT disciplines, but is also able to deliver IT projects and lead continuous service improvement activities.

Robert Young

Head of Infrastructure and Deployment at Compass Group UK & Ireland

I have worked with Juan Carlos at many levels during his time with Compass. Whenever we needed senior stakeholder management he was the 'go to' contact. His communication and interpersonal skills at Board level meant he was able to manage and resolve incidents in an effective manner that matched the requirements of the stakeholders and the available architecture. Juan Carlos was also involved in many projects that were delivered either internally or externally and was a key member of the Business Partnering team. gathering requirements and assisting on the scoping of the solutions came under his remit. His high technical skill level and awareness, along with excellent interpersonal skills ensured that the solutions delivered the required benefits and more to the owners and stakeholders

JC was part of my IT Business Partnering team during 2019, JC is a great communicator with exceptional people skills and the ability to build strong business stakeholder relationships. JC is technically minded with great problem-solving skills; he works well under pressure and was always willing to step in and offer his support where required. I found JC to be conscientious, hard working and a pleasure to work with and I am sure he will be an asset to any organization.

Anne Edmonds

Executive Assistant at Riverstone

I was lucky to work with Juan Carlos (JC) at Compass Group UK&I for 14 years. During this time I witnessed JC excel in stakeholder management and develop within the UK&I IT team. He is a true professional, taking pride in his work and was my ‘go to’ IT resource. JC was able to adapt to the changing needs of the business and was extremely responsive to requests, even if out of hours. JC has solid problem solving and technical skills. I was always impressed by his ability to remain calm under pressure and complete his project work on time. He has a unique ability to explain things in a way that is easy to understand by those less tech savvy which is a skill in itself. JC took his work seriously and would regularly travel between Compass offices in the UK to meet the needs of his stakeholders which included members of the UK&I Executive team and Compass PLC colleagues. I am sure JC will be an asset to the next organisation he joins.

Narinder Gill

Executive Assistant at Achieve together

I have worked with Juan Carlos over many years in a support environment and must say he has always been a considerate, courteous and professional individual who undertakes tasks with expertise and determination. He has a great deal of experience and is always on hand, doesn't shy away from hard work and goes out of his way to fulfil requests to provide advice and support whether that be practical or verbal. A great team player who works equally well in isolation. An asset to any organisation that is looking for someone who is prepared to go the extra mile
