I founded Sky’s business coverage at the channel’s inception in 1989. Over the next 20 years, I anchored coverage for a range of landmark events, from the collapse of the Berlin Wall, to the last global financial crisis, and beyond.Through boom and bust, from election nights to Budget specials, I have been an established business commentator for the punishing schedule of the 24/7 news cycle.Since leaving Sky in 2009, I've broadcast for the BBC, ITV, Reuters, Fox, Al-Jazeera, TRT World and LBC. I host ‘The Business Breakfast’ on JazzFM, and have recently been involved with Arise Networks – a new, global news service aimed at Africa – as Director of Business and Economics Editor. I am also a consultant to one of Europe’s largest independent news services companies.I co-wrote ‘Fixing Britain: The Business of Reshaping our Nation’ with Lord Digby Jones, giving no-nonsense solutions from the straight-talking face of British business. As well as my articles for the British national press and magazines, I have also been published by the British Journalism Review.In 2005 I was voted Business Broadcaster of the Year, and in 2006 I was made a Freeman of the City of London.
