Richard is an excellent manager and director- with infectious enthusiasm and passion for his work. Always clear and helpful, Richard strives to make employees feel valued, whilst always pushing them to achieve their best. He values good communication, and our regular meetings helped define and redefine my role at SIE, in what was a very challenging and changeable job for both of us. Both organised and adaptable; easily one of the best managers I've had the pleasure of working with.

Richard has a rare mix of cross sectoral skills; environmental management, blue chip company and small enterprise entrepreneur. His reliable insight, quick mind and exceptional communication abilities would make him an asset to any team.
