Gary is both a licensed insolvency practitioner and CEDR accredited mediator and in January 2014 he acquired (what is now) PBC Business Recovery and Insolvency.
He has been a member of Council at The Association of Business Recovery Professionals, which included contributing to the consultation for the Enterprise Bill. He has also been advisor to various Government departments and party to consultations for key areas, including football governance and the review on Corporate Governance, which started rolling out with the Corporate Insolvency & Governance Act 2020 and subsequently, the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act 2023.
Gary marked his 35th year in the insolvency industry on 6 March 2024 and in a recent High Court hearing, the presiding insolvency judge informed the other party they should heed Gary’s view because he is one of the most experienced insolvency practitioners in the Country.
On the recommendation of a (then) Queens Council Gary obtained his accreditation as a mediator and now facilitates settlements of corporate and insolvency-related disputes.
In the (little) spare time he has Gary enjoys all sport, particularly rugby, golf and snooker. He is also a co-opted member of a tail-gating group supporting Minnesota Vikings American Football Team. His claims to sporting fame include missing the final black to beat Steve Davies and “Trying” to stop former England rugby star, Wade Dooley who goose-stepped rapidly towards a terrified full back!
