Background

Born in London and educated at Dulwich and Southampton Michael commencedworking in the family business F E Beaumont Ltd in 1973. He was responsible for major contracts in Guernsey and, as a Director of the company, the installation of over 160 chimneys at the Toyota plant, Burnaston, Derbyshire. In 1991 he became the Managing Director and was responsible for steering the company through difficult market conditions.
He formed Beaumont Specialist Fabrications in 2001 but in 2006 realised that the market conditions were such that a highly specialised manufacturing company was not what the market place required.
The consultancy Beaumont Technical Services Ltd has been formed to allow his unique industry experience to benefit both existing and new customers on a worldwide basis.
