Eric has been a Professional Toastmaster for over 14 years and is an extremely caring and customer focused person.  He was trained by the National Association of Toastmasters. Like Peter York he is a founding member & Fellow of the Executive Guild of Toastmasters, something he is very proud of. 

Being a Member of the National Association of Toastmasters his pedigree is 1^st Class, but he is also Secretary and founding member of Findatoastmaster UK, the Toastmaster Directory covering the whole of the UK, thus making his contacts in the industry a benefit to the progress of the Graduate.

Before he became a toastmaster Eric had a career in Sales and Marketing for Black & Decker/Dewalt for 31 years and 9 years as Sales Office Manager for Keeler Ltd, the biggest brand name in ophthalmic instruments: his experience in training, development and customer care during that period are an asset to the programme.
