Bio
Adrian Smyth, MEng, PMP®️, Dip Acc. Bus. (ACCA)
I've worked with Paul over the past 3 years and I've always found him to be a highly talented and extremely committed. Paul has extensive experience working directly with a global market leader in mobile backhaul solutions and has gained a trusted advisor status. Paul is always very focused on the customer needs and delivering solutions in a timely manner. I would not hesitate to recommend Paul to any organisation wishing to be successful in a high technology field.
Michael Burch
Paul has a wide knowledge of telecoms systems. His technical depth as well as his pragmatic and business-like approach to engineering, coupled with innovative thinking, makes him one of the most impressive engineers I have ever worked with. I would have no hesitation in recommending him to work on any project.
