Director
Simon’s key role is to accelerate and shape the services and group businesses towards the future – from initially setting up an independent surgery business within Optivet, to co-founding satellite clinics nationwide, to co-founding the regions’s only true 24/7 A&E service, to co-founding the veterinary world’s most innovative AI tool to date, he is in Rob Lowe’s words, “The guy that pushes the rock off the mountain”.
He continuously visualises the veterinary future and helps the team to reach it before anyone else.
Making himself available from 6am – 9pm seven days per week is the level of commitment he shows to improve our chances of reaching these goals. He is on first name terms with team members the moment they join, his door is always open and everyone will be greeted with a smile and humour.
Away from work, Simon is likely to be found walking up a hill or at a sporting, music or theatrical event, sometimes with a glass of something decent in his hand.
Simon is passionate about creating a framework and permissions for Optivet to continuously improve and deliver world class specialist-led veterinary care - globally from 2027.
