I have taken on the role of Managing Director at ES Global a lead contractor for major events and projects around the world, designing and delivering relocatable architecture and structures. While many events and experiences we help deliver are short-lived, the materials, components and equipment that make them possible have many lives. We operate worldwide with regional offices in Europe, North America, Australia, Asia and the Middle East.We design our proprietary modular equipment to be reused over and over again. Each unit has a story to tell. Components that formed the water polo venue for the London 2012 Olympics went on to Sochi 2014 Winter Olympics, helping to build a hangar for rehearsals for the opening ceremony, before forming the bulk of the velodrome at the Jakarta 2018 Asian Games.Our very success is built on circular economy processes and a drive to minimise our impact throughout manufacture, delivery, construction and removal/reuse. When a project demands new equipment or systems, we design them for complete flexibility of use and space-efficient, lower-impact transportation, and manufacture it using materials that are, wherever possible, from replenishable sources.Before taking this role at ES Global I had 5 wonderful years at Tyréns leading the UK business area with its two operating companies AKT II and Hilson Moran. Before that I spent 20 fantastic and formative years at Accenture as a strategy and digital consultant ultimately building and leading the Global Cities practice.

Listed skills include Strategy, Business Strategy, Management Consulting, Sustainability, and 44 others.
