Senior programme and project director with 30+ years of international experience delivering world-class resorts, theme parks, and large-scale leisure destinations from greenfield through operational handover. Equally at home leading purpose-assembled teams from the ground up or contributing at senior level within established expert organisations; adapting leadership style to what each project and each person demands. Being neither engineer nor architect by training brings deliberate impartiality: the ability to hold the global programme perspective, align diverse specialists, and translate complex technical constraints into clear decisions — while remaining genuinely curious about every discipline involved. A natural communicator who understands that consistent delivery of excellence depends on shared ownership, trust, and an environment where expertise is valued, developed, and passed on.
