David joined Cadet Vocational College after many years in the private sector, bringing with him a background in design and marketing. He later transitioned into vocational training, where he discovered a passion for helping young people overcome challenges and reach their potential — as he puts it, “I was bitten by the training bug!”
David has developed and delivered training programmes focused on supporting learners into apprenticeship opportunities and employment, particularly those facing barriers to progression. Over the past 10 years, he worked on a freelance basis to support the development and delivery of these programmes across a range of sectors.
Now part of the team at Cadet Vocational College, David is focused on helping to enhance the learner journey and ensure positive outcomes for all learners.
Outside of work, David can often be found sailing, or more often, repairing, his beloved boat, Cookies.
