  • His time in the senior service, deployments and attachments with the Royal Marines Mountain & Arctic Warfare cadre.
  • His 14 year stint as Head of International Risk at the BBC in London where he pioneered a safety culture in the news business adapting the skills he’d acquired in the military to the needs of journalists at the sharp end.
  • How he established his own security consultancy company business, Zero Risk International.

Tony is a published author and we finish off with his book Zero Risk.
