About me

As a coach and mentor

I am an Associate Certified Coach (ACC) with the International Coaching Federation (ICF) and did my coaching training with Barefoot Coaching.

I offer personal one-to-one and team/group coaching sessions as well as working with some of my coaching colleagues on shared projects.

I thrive on both one-to-one and group relationships by creating supportive working environments for personal and business growth, leading to shared success.

I have been formally delivering business and personal coaching for the last four years after a career of 35+ years as a senior leader in the transport industry, working for public and private sector businesses as well as establishing and running my own management consultancy.

I have experience of coaching and mentoring in both public and private sector organisations, specifically with women in the transport and construction industry and with young people through my work as a STEM Ambassador.

I also bring to my coaching offering a significant amount of experience in managing and leading senior, multi-disciplinary teams to develop both individual and team performance and to embed a winning delivery culture.

Part-time, I am the Events and Professional Development Lead at Women in Transport,  a not-for-profit that empowers women in the industry to maximise their potential. My role involves oversight of the LEAD Leadership Development programme, the Advance Mentoring programme and the Intersectionality workstream. I am also a Mentor on the Advance programme and a Coach on the LEAD development programme.

As a person

I am a husband and father (of two daughters) and a grandfather of six (four girls and twin boys) and live in Ealing in West London.

I am a passable cook (given a recipe to follow) and love spending time with friends in the UK and Madrid and family in the UK and France (I am currently trying to learn to speak French – emphasis on the “trying”).   

To unwind, I love cooking, walking, reading a good book, watching football (I am a Chelsea season ticket holder) and (my guilty pleasure) collecting/watching vintage horror movies (1930s-1970s).
