John O’Toole is a Managing Consultant with 1Spatial Ireland, with responsibility for the delivery of solutions to our key Irish customers.

He varies between working on-site with customers and working from his home in nearby County Meath. After dropping his two girls off to school, he has a morning scrum call with the team of developers and consultants who are spread across the island of Ireland. During the scrum call, they catch up on what happened the previous day and go through plans for the upcoming day. With many projects running in parallel, John spends a lot of the day in meetings with colleagues and customers – either remotely or in person. The frequent communication is essential to ensure we are delivering value to the ever-evolving requirements of our customers.

On finishing his working day, John likes to get out for a run to clear the mind. At the weekends, the mornings tend to be taken up with his children’s sports activities. If time and weather allow it, the BBQ will make an appearance for the evening. John also recently invested in an Ooni pizza oven and is working on perfecting his Neapolitan style pizza – still a work in progress!

He specialises in Emergency Services, drawing on his previous award-winning experience as Geospatial Intelligence Analyst. Phill led the intelligence analysis for the UK’s largest burglary reduction operation which resulted in a 20% reduction in burglaries.

As mentioned, Phill’s knowledge of Emergency Services is paramount to his success and his attitude towards collaboration with customers has led to new solutions being developed for known problems in emergency services using 1Spatial technology. His solutions have helped customers such as the Home Office, Met Police and Counter Terrorism Police. He has been there so truly understands the customer's problems.
