BIO

I have worked in indoor climbing since 2007 and have done most jobs in a centre, from coaching and route setting to running sites and setting new ones up.

 

As Regional Climbing Manager for Everyone Active I led climbing across a multi-site estate, then ran one of the UK's busiest lead climbing centres as Head of Climbing at Westway. I hold an MSc in Sports Management.

 

Today I help operators, investors and federations in the UK and abroad build climbing businesses that last.

"I have worked with Jez on a number of projects and ideas in the indoor climbing industry. Jez's experience and knowledge of the sector is second to none. For many years he ran the busiest indoor centre in the country (Westway, London). He set industry standards in all areas and through his leadership, ten of thousands of Londoners (and beyond) have been introduced into this wonderful sport. I would highly recommend Jez to anyone who is looking for differentiated and thoughtful insights."
