Having worked at Doncaster Chamber of Commerce for two decades, and now currently enjoying his 10th year as the organisation’s CEO, Dan has long been an advocate for the former-town-turned-city that he represents, its indigenous business community, and the wider South Yorkshire region at large.
Not only has the network gone from strength to strength under his judicious leadership (being crowned Chamber of the Year in 2019) but he has also played a key role in delivering some big changes for Doncaster itself. Among other key achievements and contributions, he spearheaded a winning City Status bid, helped found the most successful UTC in the country and, particularly relevant to today’s event, has been pivotal in the ongoing campaign to reopen Doncaster Sheffield Airport.
