Career background

After completing a BSc(Hons) in Physics & Meteorology at the University of Reading, Paul joined the Met Office in 1995, initially working on the development of a site-specific forecasting model aimed at improving the local forecasting on temperature and fog. As the range of site-specific products widened, Paul was instrumental in the development of the database and product generation system, before moving into a related system support role. In 2007 Paul joined the newly-formed Strategic Product & Marketing Group (SMPG) in a role aimed at more closely integrating the needs of key customers with the research plans. Paul is currently studying for an MBA with the Open University.
