Jack grew up in Norwich. At school, he really enjoyed the science subjects and went on to study chemistry, biology, and maths at A-level before specialising in chemistry at Sheffield University. He found his transition to university tough but also a part of his life where he grew up and learned to stand on his own two feet. University life made him realise he thrives under pressure to get a job done.
Following university, Jack spent a successful 18 months working in crop genetics at the John Innes Centre in Norwich as a laboratory researcher. From here, he moved to Dupont to work in their disinfectants and cleaners business before making another move to EDF Energy as a commercial graduate on a two-year programme. After successful completion of this, Jack transferred to their Sizewell C project working as part of a team looking at how the project will be financed and seek approval. It’s working here that Jack has discovered his passion for a low-carbon energy mix.
