“David has the power of ensuring everything is informed by data but of moving quickly to reach the critical insights needed to really shift market position. He really understands our sector and is one of the most impressive marketers I have ever seen.”
— Paula Sanderson, Chief Operating Officer & University Secretary, Cardiff University
“I was extremely impressed with the five market insight analysis reports that David undertook for the Faculty of Science and Technology.
I have seen many market insight reports in my 10 years as Executive Dean and this set was different. Each was comprehensive, well organised and direct, and provided a compelling roadmap to improvement.
Indeed, we would need a very good reason not to do exactly what David recommended, such was the quality of the advice.”
— Professor Peter Atkinson, Executive Dean, Faculty of Science & Technology, University of Lancaster
“It is always a great joy to work with David. Everything he has done with Kent has had a positive impact. I value his insight, marketing brain and his candour in telling it how it is. He is extremely supportive and I look forward to continuing our working relationship. We really need his objectivity, his data driven approach as well as his innovation and creativity.”
— Simone Davies, Former Director of Future Students & Brand, University of Kent
“David is a blisteringly smart guy. He asks hard questions and gives unalloyed no-bullshit answers.”
— Dave Cliff, Professor of Computer Science, University of Bristol
“Your clear and direct analysis and recommendations are a welcome contrast to the reports I previously worked on with XYZ!”
