Robin has spent his whole working life providing promotion, support, counsel and a safe extra pair of hands to his clients in the worlds of international entertainment and sport. Having started his working career at J Walter Thompson, which was then the largest advertising agency in the world, one evening in a pub in Chelsea he met an Irishman called Ronan O’Rahilly who was planning the launch of the world’s first pirate radio station. That same evening he offered him a job at Radio Caroline. Here he scripted programmes for the station, sold advertising airtime and produced shows which were broadcast to the station’s massive daytime audience, not knowing whether the British Government was going to close the station down or blow it out of the North Sea! After two years at Radio Caroline he joined a production company, making commercials for British TV and during this time, whilst shooting a Pepsi commercial in Los Angeles he met Sammy Davis Jr. He persuaded Sammy to come to London to perform at the Grosvenor House Hotel. He raised the necessary funds, the shows were a sell-out, Sammy became a lifelong friend and he spent the next 12 years as an impresario and personal promoter to some of the world’s greatest artistes and performers, including Sammy, Marlene Dietrich, Count Basie, Ella Fitzgerald, Lena Horne, Buddy Rich, and having worked with Liza Minnelli, Frank Sinatra and many more, Robin was given the opportunity to work with some of the major events in the second of his passions – international sport. He was appointed as Director of Broadcasting for one of the world's largest advertising agencies - Saatchi and Saatchi - and so entered the world of sports marketing in the late 1980s. He applied his skill set for clients at nine Olympic Summer and Winter Games, three FIFA World Cups, six Ryder Cups and numerous Wimbledon Grand Slam tournaments and FA Cups. In 2001 he formed TSE Consulting, a Lausanne based sports consultancy, and 9 years later stepped down from his role as Group CEO. He finally ‘retired’ to his home on the Isle of Wight in August 2010. In 2017 Her Majesty the Queen appointed him as her High Sheriff for the county of the Isle of Wight, having previously appointed him as a Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) for his services to disability sport in the UK. Robin is Chairman of Fundraising and a member of the Executive Council of the charity The British Wheelchair Sports Foundation (WheelPower), the governing body for disability sports in the UK, based at Stoke Mandeville, the birthplace of the Paralympic movement. Under his Chairmanship the organisation has raised in excess of twenty million dollars for disability sport. Throughout his fascinating career he has rubbed shoulders and worked closely with many legends from the worlds of entertainment and sport.
