Simon Thompson is a Chief Executive at The Geological Society. He possess expertise in marketing, b2b, publishing, digital marketing, digital strategy and 21 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "I reported directly to Simon for 18 months whilst he was Head of Digital and Marketing at Independent Age, and couldn’t have asked for a better colleague throughout this time. The skills he brought (and brings) to the table meant that as a Digital team, we were able to thrive. He’s calm under pressure. He provides his team with the trust and autonomy to let them do what they do best (many people may preach to do this, but few do it effectively - Simon does). He has more strategic know-how than anyone I’ve worked with before, and steers his team through their work in order to hit ambitious targets. All in all, he’s an utter professional and is the best, most effective manager I’ve reported to by far. Equally, he’s also a total joy to work with and brings a level of energy, optimism and humour to work every day, which carries through organisational culture and makes the office a much more enjoyable place to work. I truly hope to work with him again one day. My only problem is that he may’ve raised the bar a bit too high for others to follow! " and "Simon is an extremely focussed entrepreneur. He brings a vibrancy, creativity and direction to every company he has acquired and led and all with an openness, fairness and loyalty to staff, clients and suppliers alike. I had the pleasure of working for Simon for three years after he took over responsibility for the DeHavilland title, amongst others post EMAP’s acquisition. Simon presided over a doubling of turnover in an already congested market place – it comes as little surprise that Simon’s latest venture has been so impactful."

Listed skills include Marketing, B2B, Publishing, Digital Marketing, and 22 others.
