Thomas Martin

I currently work alongside Nick Hildyard, my second “running mate” in 10 years in the role. This is my 19th position in the Company (3 on the Main Board alone), having joined fresh from Advertising in London way back in 1988.

Career highlights include runner up in the UK’s Entrepreneur of the Year, stewardship of a successful business, numerous product launches and acquisitions. Board experience is augmented with positions with the CBI, Bondholders, and of course FEO, plus a number of charitable Board positions. Public speaking this year alone has let me loose on Government bodies, an IOD audience, Hull Bondholders and the UK Safety Industry. I am proud of the Arco crew, and remain a loyal supporter of Kingston Upon Hull.
