I entered the waste sector in 1986 with London Brick Landfill working as a weighbridge operator. As the company changed to become Shanks and McEwan I was entered into a Management Development programme that gave me a breadth of experience across the sector from landfill operations to sales and development in London.

Over the last 36 years I have worked for Veolia (inc Onyx), Suez (inc SITA), Cleanaway and UK Waste. Over this time I worked mainly in the commercial and industrial sector in the UK and also some time in France and Italy.

I left the corporate world in 2013 and set up as a consultant for 2 years before forming National Resource Consortium to work with independent operators in the UK developing multi-site waste contracts.
