Bio
Jacqui Fletcher
I would thoroughly recommend Liam for any post, he has been a wonderful ambassador for the Business School, friendly, professional, reliable, knowledgeable and very well regarded by our academics, students and visitors to the Business School. I am sure he will go far.
Alpesh Patel OBE
Absolutely top notch. In my role both as CEO of Praefinium on the hedge fund side and as Dealmaker for Department for International Trade I managed Liam directly and all his work was outstanding. He had difficult, time pressured tasks which needed his skills of research, business know-how, presentation - he was outstanding on all and I don't think some of our investments from abroad into the UK would have landed as quick were it not for his hard work, diligence, professionalism. Highly recommend and fully endorse to any CEO.
