In his consulting practice he designed and advised on electrical power generation, on water, sewage, and other waste treatment, energy recovery and machinery for moving bridges and similar plant. Geoffrey is especially proud of the design and site management of the modernisation of the machinery of The Tower Bridge, London, in the 1970s.

Geoffrey’s first domestic arbitration was over forty years ago, when he had studied no Law. He was appointed by an engineering institution who lent him a book from the library. A few weeks after that Award, the loser’s lawyer appointed him to his first international arbitration. He went on to be Chairman of CIArb, President of the Society of Construction Arbitrators and a part-time teacher, eventually External Professor of Arbitration Law, lecturing on an LlM course in the Law School of the University of Glamorgan, now the University of South Wales (USW).
