Covalent leadership team
Peter McHugh
Peter founded Covalent in May 2003 with a vision of building Covalent into one of the UK's leading software companies by 2013.
Having spent 15 years working in software companies, running a consulting business specialising in software, and publishing his first book, Making it Big in Software, in July 1999, he decided it was time to do it for real.
Covalent's mission is, "To surprise customers by delivering on our promises to improve business performance with innovative, effective software."
The closest he ever got to using his BEng in Chemical Engineering is in the naming of this company!
In 2006 Peter won the National business Award for Software Entrepreneur of the Year, South West.
Paul Moorhead
Paul Moorhead joined in January 2008 as COO with responsibility for all the day to day operations.
He has masses of software business experience, including running a couple of start-ups but he since got wise to that!
To escape from all things Covalent Paul either takes to the air or the sea pursuing rich man's sports!
Tricia White
Tricia White is Account Manager, Southern region.
Historically Tricia has worn many hats at Covalent and in particular was heavily involved in user training.
Tricia has an honours degree in Economics & Politics, is a qualified CIPD trainer and brings experience of public sector, having operated in a number of roles for the Child Support Agency over a 5 year period. Oh and I suppose we should say she was Covalent Employee of the Year 2006.

Sarah Porcas
Sarah Porcas is our Sales Operations Manager, running the sales and telesales teams and coordinating those with our internal business functions.
Sarah joined Covalent having completed a year's travelling around Australasia so is hopeful our market expansion may one day move East.
Jon Richards
Jon Richards manages the customer support function, having worked in a variety of IT development and support roles prior to joining Covalent in August 2005.
Jon is an eternal optimist i.e. he is an Aston Villa supporter.
Robin Warren
Robin Warren, BEng Computer Systems Engineering, is an experienced and pragmatic developer with a wide range of skills across the software development life cycle, with particular expertise in Java and SQL development.
Robin has always worked on customer facing high availability systems including both working on and later supporting large enterprise Java systems.
Vickie Jones
Vickie Jones' move to Covalent was a big move as she was 19 years with her previous employer, where she fulfilled a wide variety of IT roles.
For Covalent, Vickie arranges our project 'kick off' meetings, project manages implementations and creates our new customers sites, uploading all the data.
We look forward to Vickie beating her previous 'time served' record in 2025! And it's worth mentioning that she was Covalent Employee of the Year 2007.
