London, United Kingdom My time at Locke Carey had a huge impact on my career. We went from a small business to a medium sized multinational business. I was fortunate to study and MBA, and experience an MBO, and two acquisition attempts. There were some really great people to learn from and the connections and international experience really stood me in good stead for the rise of BB7.
