David has had a long journey through the planning world. Following on from his apprenticeship, David joined the planning department at NEI Parsons in 1990, planning the manufacture of turbine-generators and other power station equipment.  His role developed into project planning as part of NEI Power Projects and this continued at Parsons Brinkerhoff where he also got his first taste of delay analysis and overseas work.  With increasing family commitments, David chose to move from Power into the Water Industry in 2001.  He worked in the water industry for 12 years, principally planning framework projects for Northumbrian and Yorkshire Water.  In 2013, David joined Blake Newport where he provided delay analysis for numerous disputes in the UK and South Africa.  In 2016, David joined TWO PLUS TWO where he continues to provide planning support to projects and delay analysis for dispute resolution in the UK.
