“Lee is an organised and thorough Manager, he has been the conscience behind the continued development of the e-Guide for the Exhibition industry. A great team player, not frightened to contribute to the debate required in gaining a consensus to allow continued development of this world class guidance.”
Michael Anderson
Group Head of Health & Safety, Earls Court & Olympia
“I have worked alongside Lee for some time in my role as Chair of the AEV sustainability group and also as a member of the AEV security group. He is always proactive and a delight to work with. He has a good knowledge of both subjects and I would highly recommend him as a colleague or consultant.”
Emma Wellman
Sustainability Advisor and Olympia Venue Services Manager, Earls Court& Olympia
“Lee is a talented individual who always delivers on his promises, on time and with flair! He has an amazing aptitude to consume technical data, digest and then present in a clear and transparent way - that even I understand!!”
Chris Skeith
Director AEV and ESSA Trade Associations
"The three attributes I had to select to best describe Lee are personable, expert and high integrity. I picked them for a reason; he represents
them to a tee. Lee is also a fount of technical knowledge and very conscientious with his outputs. The one other thing I would like to highlight is Lee's flexible working style. I recently drafted him in to help shape the content/speakers for the AEO Ops Forum 2012. Within a week, he had booked in half the speakers and had the other half warmed up."
Jim Curry
Deputy Director at Association of Event Organisers
"Lee helped guide us through the experience of achieving ISO 20121 - the Sustainable event management system. He is very knowledgable about the subject, detailed and structured in his approach, but patient and understanding. He is easy to work with and gave us full support in understanding the process of going for an ISO standard. I am happy to recommend him!"
Frazer Chesterman
Director and Co-owner of FM Brooks
“Lee was always creative and objective with regards to seeking new opportunities within the Health & Safety sector of the industry, and was
very instrumental with producing policies and procedures when we first opened FIVE.”
Jonathan Smith
Head of Operational Development, Farnborough International
“Lee combines detailed and practical experience of the event industry with expert and insightful knowledge about its operational processes. This ensures that his advice; whether on sustainability, Health & Safety or general technical issues is grounded in a sense of what is achievable and realistic. Most importantly he is able to marry his input with commercial and organisational goals. His calm exterior belies a mind busy at work digesting information and problem solving and he has the uncanny ability to make following rules, regulations and processes seem like it might almost be fun!”
Simon Burton
Director, Exposure Communications
“With over 240 exhibition stand designs, risk assessments and method statements to check in the lead up to Hotelympia, Lee’s expertise proved to be invaluable. Keeping up to date with current regulations is crucial to stand inspections and the fact that Lee works with the eGuide
committee was an added bonus”
Simmone Collett
Operations Executive, Fresh RM Ltd
“It is rare to find an individual with such commitment and expertise who is also able to communicate effectively on all levels and work as part of a huge onsite team taking into account everyone’s roles and needs.”
Joanna Ripley
Head of Events, The Association for Perioperative Practice
“The calm, courteous and efficient way that Lee had of dealing with the venue, contractors and exhibitors was excellent, and meant that I could concentrate on other things which were taking place."
Allison Winton
Event Director, Royal Microscopical Society
“Lee is an absolute pleasure to work with taking the necessary time and energy to fully understand the brief and deliver exactly what he promises – early. Not only is Lee good at sticking to detail and deadlines he is also creative with his input and ideas and ensures he understands before offering a solution. In short he makes himself very easy and effective to work with.”
