Can you tell us a bit about you?
I have been a part of the IRG team since 2012 after moving from one of the UK’s most reputable Insurance companies. Outside of work, my main passions are travel and sport, or ideally a combination of both. I have played cricket and football competitively for many years as well as regularly watching the football team I support – Coventry City.
As well as having a wonderful 3-year-old son, I am also the owner/parent of the most popular IR Office dog – Vinny. (**As voted for by IRG staff in 2022)
What is your role at IRG?
As part of the Business Development Team, I have been extremely proud of not only our growth but the overall development of the network. The main aspect of my role is to help us grow, and continue to work with, excellent firms who both understand and believe in our ethos.
What brand reflects you the most and why?
I would probably say Nike. As a keen trainer collector, they have always been my favourite ‘sneaks’ however, it’s their highly successful partnerships with athletes which cross over into the world of popular culture that I really love. They have also created some incredible football adverts throughout the years.
What’s your biggest IRG highlight to date?
My biggest highlights surround events. We get the opportunity to travel to some incredible cities and stay in some lovely hotels however, the main highlight of any conference for me is the team meal at the end of a successful event. Good food, endorphins, and a couple of glasses of wine normally create an excellent environment!
Name something you can’t live without.
Apart from the obvious answers and family and friends, it would have to be sport. Having played or watched sport almost every weekend for the last 25 years there is no doubt it has played a huge role in my life.
