Chris joined TIME as Business Development Manager for the South West in January 2014, having previously been at Iveagh Limited – the Family Office for the Guinness brewing dynasty managing the investments of the descendants of Arthur Guinness, the inventor of the perfect pint. The early part of Chris’s career was spent as a commissioned officer in the Armed Forces, where he served as a Captain in The Light Infantry on operations all over the world, including Bosnia, Kosovo, Sierra Leone and Iraq.

Chris lives in Honiton, Devon and outside of work finds most of his time taken up by his two young boys. Chris retains a passion for the ocean, being an experienced surfer, scuba diver and sailor and hopes to one day add to his two transatlantic sailing voyages.
