He worked first as a consultant physician in Papworth and Addenbrookes' hospitals in Cambridge.

In Sheffield he was Professor of Medicine and a Divisional Director.

For the last 10 years he has worked in the Pharmaceutical Industry in Clinical Development of new therapies, firstly with AstraZeneca in Loughborough and Lund Sweden and latterly in Italy as Corporate Director of Clinical Development for Chiesi.
