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 and Starbuck & Associates.

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 six 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 Professional Development Director and board member at Women in Transport,  a not-for-profit driving empowerment, equity, and advocacy for women across our industry. My role involves oversight of the Lead Leadership Development programme, the Advance Mentoring programme and the Grow coaching programme as well as overseeing out research workstreams and white papers.

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).
