Jon Chadwick, Chief Operating Officer for Capgemini Invent UK

I am a professor at the School of Management of University College London, where I currently head the Operations & Technology group. I serve on the editorial boards of Management Science and Queueing Systems as an associate editor, and I serve as an Area Editor of the Operations and Supply Chain area at Operations Research. I am the current Service Management Special Interest Group Chair for the MSOM Society.

My research interests lie in service operations management. I am especially interested in the operational management of queueing systems, from both mathematical and behavioural perspectives. To do so, I use a mix of analytical and numerical tools, such as the theoretical analysis of stochastic process models and the empirical analysis of data from behavioural experiments.

I hold a PhD degree in Operations Research from Columbia University, an MSc in Applied Mathematics and Statistics from Stony Brook University, and a BSc in Mathematics from the American University of Beirut.
