I’m a recently retired England cricketer having played professionally for 20 years. I represented England in 16 test matches and won some iconic series, both in India and South Africa. I was awarded a Testimonial year at Middlesex, my home club, having followed in my grandfather, Denis Compton’s, footsteps. Since I’ve retired I’ve followed a few passions as well as focused on areas of self development. I finished my level 3 ECB coaching certificate. I also did a masters in Leadership in sport. I’ve had three photography exhibitions as a fine artist, being represented by galleries globally and commercially. Post retirement my first role continued my passion for elite performance as an Ambassador for MiddlesexCCC working on building leadership and performance structures in cricket. I have extensive experience in team building, leadership, travel and public speaking. I have spent a number of years working in the media as a professional pundit, commentator and presenter with Sky, BBC and ESPN, Talk Sport and many other global media outlets. I’ve presented my own cricket World Cup show on radio in 2019 as well as hosting a new cricket show in Dubai. I have invested in Property through the UK and South Africa and am building my portfolio.I recently worked closely with the CEO for Celer, a financial markets trading solutions company in London. I was building new business in a different country and my roles were to use my network to open communication lines and help bring new business.
