Over 20 years experience in the Outdoor Advertising industry, my career began at Mills & Allen (now JCDecaux) with a new start media development programme in Gateshead. I was then approached and accepted an offer to join Portland Outdoor Advertising (now Kinetic Worldwide Limited) as a buying manager in the North East, subsequently moving to London to become their National Buying Manager.From there I was head hunted by Brunton Curtis, an outdoor advertising company created with venture capitalist investment. I was the Sales and Client Services Manager. I worked closely with the owners of the company to create and deliver the business plan, this enabled the company to expand and be successfully sold to a major PLC. At that point in my career I joined Maiden Outdoor (now Titan Outdoor), managing a team of media sales professionals based at 5 regional offices. My department regularly achieved revenues of £20 million per annum.In 1999 I left Maiden to set up and develop my own outdoor advertising company, PR Sites Limited. In line with my business plan I developed, grew and eventually sold the company to a major media owner.I am now a partner at Origin Outdoor, an independent agency that represents international property management and construction companies who have outdoor advertising asset.Specialties: Business Development, Commercial Evaluation, Contract Negotiation, Sales & Marketing, Planning Process within the Out of Home and Experiential markets for Property Clients.
