Following completion of research in environmental chemistry, Paul Pritchard worked at the Laboratory of the Government Chemist, investigating soil and water contamination. Several years in environmental consultancy saw a shift towards risk management work. He has worked in the Royal & SunAlliance group since 1994, with responsibilities including the assessment of underwriting environmental risks and the implementation of internal controls.
In his spare time, he tries hard to reconcile a concern for the environment with an interest in classic motorcycles.
