Bio
Nicki Martin
Mark has an absolute skill for mentoring, leading and bringing the best of his team. He takes the time to understand his staff and uses this to get the best performance he can out of his staff and team. Mark is highly skilled in business development and delivering to achieve both revenue and sales targets. I thoroughly enjoyed working alongside Mark and have learnt so much under his guidance.
David Holloway
Mark is an exceptional Leader and I had the pleasure of working with him for over 10 years. Mark sets high standards for himself and those around him but does so by motivating and inspiring his team, at all levels, to grow and push themselves to obtain the very best results. His passion, commitment and attention to detail is exceptional and his work ethic is second to none. A genuine, more decent guy, you would struggle to meet and he would make a positive difference to any organisation.
