What Our Client's Say

We contracted David's services at short notice to facilitate a BSI surveillance audit at a time of significant business disruption. David initially conducted a Gap analysis allowing the site team to demonstrate compliance, or where necessary develop appropriate remedial action. During the audit David acted as facilitator contributing to the smooth running and successful outcome of the event.

David possesses a wealth of experience in quality systems and quality tools which when combined with his calm methodical management style represent a real asset to any business.
Head of Engineering
David, is a charismatic, genuine coach and consultant. David is both creative and visionary in thinking. A keen eye for details, highly organised, effective and efficient at his job. His background in engineering has provided positive foundations for his work, David attention to detail and systematic approach and process result in him providing a thorough service. David is also effective, efficient problem solver, highly organised and likeable.
Managing Director / BUSINESS COACH
David is a very dedicated person, capable of segmenting the problem and identifying the exact requirements and solutions for the client. He pays attention to the details and follows up on his clients beyond expectations.
Senior Test and Validation Engineer
David is a consumate professional, always polite but always focussing on the task or problem at hand. Extremely thorough in everthing he does and knowledgable in his subject. He is also imaginative and can come up with creative and original solutions, he does not just cut and paste from a textbook or quality standard. I enjoyed working with david very much and above all, he is a great human being able to communicate with empathy and understanding of his colleagues issues.
Supplier Quality Engineer
I could not recommend David enough and I am firmly with the view that going from a minimum wage job to a position at university within the space of two years could not have been achieved without his support.
private career development client
Personal - David is very approachable, easy to talk to and get on with. He is a person you can talk to about a problem and during the conversation, solution to the problem will be established.

Professional - Very driven to achieve remarkable improvement for his clients in all his areas of expertise. You wont be disappointed with his work.
Senior NPI Engineering Manager
I have worked with David over the past six years on professional and personal development. Over these years I have always valued David’s trust to be able to open up with him about what my professional and personal goals are.

Through David’s commitment, passion and driving force, he has helped me achieve my goals by understanding and defining my goals, producing a step by step guide on how to achieve these and challenging me to achieve more than I anticipated.

I will continue to invest and work with David, as I am further developing and learning new ways of thinking, growing my network, and overcoming barriers of self motivation, self achievement and self confidence.
Private coaching client
I chose to work with David, as I was very impressed with his enthusiasm and initiative in being able to help other people achieve their goals.

When working with David, he made me realise that I had the ability to achieve my current goals and gave me more faith in myself to achieve anything that I'd like to do.

I'd recommend David, as he is a very genuine down to earth person, who has always maintained a excellent professional relationship with me and have been able to open up to without hesitation.
