In my early twenties I didn't take myself too seriously. I was relaxed about work and didn't read much or look to improve myself. I got a job at an independent training provider as a trainee assessor and soon moved into a trainer role teaching maths and English which then developed into a managerial role. Over the years I moved companies and expanded my network in further education until in 2018 when I decided to set up my own training consultancy business CVP Consult (now CVP Group).
After securing a number of pre-employment contracts we moved into the apprenticeship space and secured contracts with some of the largest logistics and recruitment businesses in the UK.
Never one to be satisfied I set up our enterprise academy in 2020. I wanted to give back what I had learned and support people looking to start their own business make the move in building their own.

At the heart of everything I do is my family. I have 2 beautiful children and a wife who support every crazy venture I embark on.
