Nick joined Burhill in May 2022 and brings a wealth of operational and commercial experience spanning over 25 years working in golf, hospitality, travel and leisure businesses. As a keen golfer and club member himself - but with a handicap higher than he would want - this will help Nick guide the club knowing golf from a members perspective.

Nick is married to Kirsty and between them they have two daughters now at University. He lives in a village in North Hampshire and when not at Burhill or playing golf can be found tending to his garden or at his beloved Brentford FC accompanied by a pint or two of London Pride.

He is looking forward to supporting and working with our Captain's and Committee to ensure that Burhill delivers a consistently good experience for all members whether they be older or younger, long standing or very new and is excited about what the future holds for the club.
