Paul’s career in corporate communications has been within highly regulated environments - ensuring compliance with a variety of legal and other requirements. He has worked with both internal and external audits in the private and public sector. Paul has been the corporate communications director for a FTSE 250 business, and involved with financial services, travel, healthcare and publishing sectors. He has also been a pension fund trustee and responsible for the operations of several charities. Paul is now a freelance public policy adviser and his public service includes being a part-time judge in Kent.
Paul says: “One of my personal interests is the importance of science in society, and I appreciate that in order to maximise the Biochemical Society’s positive impact we need to underpin activity with sound governance, risk management and financial scrutiny. I believe my independent and open-minded approach will be beneficial in supporting the work of the Audit Committee and thereby help ensure the sure-footed delivery of our charitable objectives.”
