Before Firstbase I was talking to VC firms, large US Startups, considering an MBA in the States and unicorn founders in the UK about joining them. I sat on the board of a social enterprise managing £80m of housing stock for 3,000+ tennants.
I’ve managed multi-million £ construction projects and office furniture renovations in some of the most
challenging environments on earth, negotiating complex supply chain agreements that got bespoke product, furniture and office materials from China to the Ghanian oil Fields. I led teams of 20+ workers remotely.
I bootstrapped Firstbase while continuing to play as a semi-pro footballer.
