As part of his role at RICS he's been awarded honorary doctorates by Heriot-Watt and Amity University, accompanied UK Prime Ministers on trade missions, and addressed political leaders at the United Nations on furthering Sustainable Development Goals.
When it comes to the Women of the Future; a chance meeting with founder Pinky Lilani at his daughter’s school, saw Sean being instrumental in the addition of the new ‘Real Estate, Infrastructure and Construction’ category to their Awards in 2014.
In 2018 Sean was named on the ’50 Leading Lights’ list, a campaign showcasing leaders building a new status quo and impacting others through kindness.
He was also recognised in this year's 'Agents of Change' list of male UK business leaders who have excelled in promoting the role of women in the workplace. Handpicked by diversity trailblazers from across British culture, business and social advocacy organisations, Sean has been recognised for his leadership in both championing women at RICS and advocacy for greater female representation in the Chartered Surveying Profession around the world.
The first man to feature - Kim and Sean spoke about his Kent upbringing and the inspirational English teacher who encouraged him into a career in the City, evolving the concept of flexibility within his workforce, as well as Sean’s continuing efforts to improve female representation within the chartered surveying industry.
