Simon's Story

Simon’s focus over the last 15 years has been improving the sustainability of some of the more challenging sectors, where a mix of technical, commercial, behavioural and regulatory changes are needed to deliver positive change. Bringing together teams of technical experts across a range of disciplines from within Ricardo to solve a problem is Simon’s focus and never is this more relevant when looking to improve the sustainability across the aviation sector. The challenge is complex because of the multitude of stakeholders, policies and strategies and a broad mix of conventional and innovative low carbon technologies needed. Working with engineers, consultants, airports, airlines, technology developers and investors makes this an exciting challenge to tackle.

Other complex estates Simon focus his time on includes healthcare, Army, RAF and prisons. Simon uses his technical knowledge and market experience to support organisations make the change needed to improve their performance. His expertise in carbon management, strategy development and understanding of technical solutions such as life cycle assessment and renewables has driven demonstrable change and improvement.
