I had the pleasure of working with Stephen for 3 years at Cardinus. During that time, we collaborated on several projects including publishing an industry magazine, planning large-scale virtual and in-person events, and managing global strategic campaigns. His expertise as a marketer was a considerable advantage to our team and helped us to develop more efficient solutions. I believe that Stephen would make an excellent additional to any marketing team as he demonstrates empathetic leadership skills and encourages others to perform tasks most suited to their strengths. Personally, he was always willing to be a listening ear and offer kind words to anyone who needed support. For this reason, I would highly recommend Stephen and would be happy to work with him again in the future.

Stephen and I worked together on a number of joint campaigns between FR Consultants and Cardinus. Stephen is one of those amazing people you come across that finds ways to get things done, rather than finding obstacles. Whilst our companies are both involved in highly technical services, Stephen is skilled at identifying clear key messages and presenting complex ideas in a client/user-friendly way. A particular highlight of our partnership was creating and marketing one of the most successful webinars either of our companies has held to date.
