As part of the public services consulting team, I lead our work on economic development and growth. My experience is in programme and policy review, economic impact assessment and appraisal, strategy development and grant delivery and administration.
This includes major projects for central government such as leading the firm’s work delivering an offshore wind supply chain accelerator programme; undertaking a review of the UK steel industry; and evaluating the 2012 Olympic legacy.
Alongside this I have also led many varied assignments for local government and sub-regional bodies from developing devolution deals, to drafting local economic strategies to preparing HM Treasury compliant business cases for major investment projects and programmes. Most recently my work has focused on place-based growth and supporting local authorities through local government reorganisation.
Outside work, time is spent with my wife and four children. As a family we are actively involved in our church in London. I am also a season ticket holder at Tottenham and, if not watching Spurs, enjoy watching and reading about most other sports.
