Tom Hill has joined the META team as Project Delivery Manager. Tom was previously Marine Operations Lead at Bombora Wave Power and brings a wealth of experience from a range of marine sectors.
Tom grew up in Pembrokeshire and completed a Marine Geography Bsc (Hons) Degree at Cardiff University, before spending seven years working in the nearshore marine survey industry. During that time he collected metocean and hydrographic datasets on projects all around the UK, and overseas in Africa, Tajikistan and Micronesia. A qualified skipper and rescue diver, Tom enjoys spending time on and in the water, but confesses he has only ever dived in tropical seas! Tom is a keen traveller and has explored places in Europe, Asia and Central America. In 2017 he swapped his backpack for a campervan and decided to move back to Pembrokeshire, taking up a Marine Operations role with Bombora Wave Power. In his role as META Project Delivery Manager he will oversee the ongoing development and delivery of the META project including managing the leasing and consenting processes, liaising with the operations team, procuring equipment and engaging legal and technical support whilst working closely with the MEW Programme Manager, META Operations Manager and the Marketing and Communications Manager to ensure the effective and efficient delivery of the META project.
