John was manager of the Marine Technical Division for a survey company in the Middle East which he helped set up, as well as having been a marine superintendent and operations manager. Five years were spent as an IACS member as head of the ISM Code, which involved being Chairman of the IACS ad hoc Group ISM Code.
