We all face hard times, but Gerard Tyler truly has a talent for finding himself in difficult situations.

From finding solutions in the water industry during the 2008 Financial Crisis to working for uranium-enrichment giant URENCO Group after the Fukushima disaster, Gerard is certainly well-versed in crisis management.

Still in his role as Group Treasurer of URENCO Group, which provides safe, cost effective and reliable uranium enrichment services for power generation within a framework of high environmental, social and corporate responsibility standards, Gerard has a wealth of experience to share.

But where did it all start and what are the lessons he’s learned from those experiences?
