“I left military service in 2022 after starting a business four years prior. This period saw the successful growth of Spectre Military Equipment Ltd as a credible supplier of modern equipment used by soldiers, police officers and security operatives.

I started very small and designed a few products that became a popular feature in the military marketplace, from here I grew the range to incorporate the most modern manufacturing techniques and materials including injection moulding, thermoplastics and laminates.

I noticed early that there are some amazing microbusinesses and medium enterprises that although had the expertise to create excellent products, were unable to access machinery and materials to fully reach their potential. I created a space where these became available and they were well received.

Due to the demand of the design and fabrication service that SME provided it was clear that a more focussed approach was required, I formed UK Tactical Solutions Ltd which provided the space for SME to grow its range and for UKTS to help other businesses grow theirs.

I’m very much looking forward to being part of my existing and new customers' journeys in reaching their full potential in this very niche market.”
