Chair Holder

“I won’t bore you with details, but I’ve been around a while. I’ve travelled to over 57 countries as an insurance broker at Lloyd’s or working within the secure logistics industry. I’ve seen first-hand the issues you face in the precious metal mining, refining, secure logistics, manufacturing and retail sectors.

“To me, insurance shouldn’t be about dictating; it’s about supporting your business and giving you the freedom and confidence to grow.”

5 Things you may not know about the man in the chair:
  • I am a former insurance consultant to the Bank of England.
  • I managed the largest precious metals placement in the history of the London insurance market (US$3 billion).
  • Sports play a big part in my life, and I have played rugby for London Wasps’ first team and won silver and bronze medals at the National Rowing Championships of Great Britain.
  • Cycling is also a passion, and I represented Great Britain at the road cycling UCI Amateur World Championships (I didn’t do very well!).
  • I have soft spots for chocolate, elevator pitches, Ted Lasso quotes (‘doing the right thing is never wrong’), my foxy red lab, family, and friends.

If you're not distinctive, you'll only be second best or a substitute
