Stephen is a partner specialising in PFI/PPP/NPD/hub and Energy projects. Advising both public and private sector clients as well as funders, he has completed projects in a variety of sectors including healthcare, education, street lighting, waste, waste to energy, defence, wind, hydro and fire and rescue. He has significant experience in bid-stage projects and also in advises parties on operational projects in the healthcare, education and street lighting sectors (including secondary market sales, major variations and disputes). Clients advised include Balfour Beatty Investments, Consort Healthcare, Nord/LB, North Lanarkshire Council, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, Bank of New York Mellon, Co-operative Bank, Levenseat, Dexia Credit Local and RBS. Stephen’s extensive experience finds him sought out to advise both strategically and operationally on major projects, both at bid stage and during the operational phase. In Chambers and Partners, sources say ‘he’s willing to give a view rather than just telling you what the regulations say – he’ll discuss the implications and find imaginative solutions.’
