Having studied in Southampton and the obtained experience in commercial agency, Tim moved to London in 1986 and joined the investment department of Edward Erdman forward funding retail warehouse developments and trading commercial investments.

It was whilst advising a client on the acquisition of a media property based portfolio that it became apparent that landowners and their agents lacked the expertise needed to manage these assets effectively. This was the Eureka moment.

Following two years of extensive research of the operation of the Outdoor media markets, TTP was launched in January 1990. Tim is now a regular guest speaker to the CPD Foundation on Outdoor media.

A member of the Old Petomanian Golf Society - 2011 Champion, the Roads & Public Works Contractors Golfing Society (Picks & Shovels) - 2011 Champion and the Building Alliance Golfing Society - winner of The Builder trophy dating back to 1933.
