South East England. I reply faster to a specific question than to a general introduction.

What makes an enquiry easy to answer

  • The decision you are trying to make, and the date it has to be made by.
  • Who has to be convinced: a board, an investment committee, a regulator, a customer.
  • What you have already tried, and what did not work.
  • Any constraint that is genuinely fixed. Budget, geography, existing contracts, incumbent technology.

A paragraph containing those four things gets a substantive reply, usually within a day.

Executive search and recruiters

I hold two executive roles and I am not running a job search. I do consider board, non-executive and advisory appointments where the mandate is specific and the conflict position is clean.

If you are briefing on a role, send the mandate document and the name of the client. I will tell you within a day whether it is a conversation worth having. Full CV.

04 / Media

Media and conference programmes

I comment on hydrogen economics, geologic and natural hydrogen, hydrogen safety and standards, industrial decarbonisation, delay in green infrastructure, and energy security. I give the same answer on the record as off it.

Speaking topics and past engagements are on the speaking page. A high-resolution portrait and short biography are available on request.

05 / Conflicts

Independence and conflicts

I operate as an independent expert with full disclosure of commercial interests and a standing recusal protocol. Current roles include CEO of Oxford Hydrogen and Managing Director Europe of GeoKiln, alongside independent advisory work in the hydrogen sector.

For any topic intersecting a direct commercial interest or beneficiary relationship, I declare the interest in advance and recuse myself from evaluation, drafting or votes.
