I started as a video editor, cutting primetime entertainment including Big Brother, Fame Academy and The Real Holiday Show, before spending eight years as a freelance owner-operator embedded inside Sunset+Vine — editing and directing RAD for Channel 5, which won the Children's Entertainment BAFTA in 2005.
On the back of that I launched Tide UK Post Production on £8,000 of personal capital, built it into a six-suite Soho facility with clients including Sunset+Vine, the Central Office of Information and The Weinstein Company, and grew it to £1.5m annual turnover before selling it to our largest client.
That acquisition took me into Flutter International, where I ran the technical operations function for over a decade — building the post-production infrastructure from scratch, leading a team of twenty across producers, editors and technical staff, delivering content across broadcast, digital, YouTube, Twitch and live events for every vertical in the business, and representing the technical function at board level on capital investment and future direction.
