Rod was my 'right hand man' for nearly a decade serving as Finance Director & then moving to Commercial Director to help sales growth. He's just a machine! He is incredibly organised and just churns through work - always staying calm and never getting flustered by pressure. He was highly respected by staff and created trusted relationships with clients. He's a very dependable board member an experienced business all-rounder. A great asset and friend.
