He worked closely with Lord Browne on the development and strategy for the new BP brand and Sir Christopher Gent on building the Vodafone brand through acquisition, amongst others.

He has a strong passion for CSR and established the BrandPie Foundation in 2010 to help charities build their brands and improve their fund-raising capabilities.
