Senior Business Development ConsultantPhill Ridley is a Senior Business Development Consultant at 1Spatial. He specialises in Emergency Services, drawing on his previous award-winning experience as Geospatial Intelligence Analyst. Phill led the intelligence analysis for the UK’s largest burglary reduction operation which resulted in a 20% reduction in burglaries.
As mentioned, Phill’s knowledge of Emergency Services is paramount to his success and his attitude towards collaboration with customers has led to new solutions being developed for known problems in emergency services using 1Spatial technology. His solutions have helped customers such as the Home Office, Met Police and Counter Terrorism Police. He has been there so truly understands the customer's problems.
He has also supported the Danish National Mapping Agency configure the foundations of an automated solution to build and maintain a 3D National Building Model to help combat Climate Change in Denmark.
Outside of work, Phill lives in Surrey with his wife Hannah and their cat Ella, whom you’ll likely spot making an appearance on Teams calls. He is the Director of Music at Holy Trinity Wandsworth where he leads a choir of 15 singers and organists.
Phill is also a keen bell ringer. Not only is he a member of the Guild of St Paul's Cathedral Ringers in London, but he is also a member of the Westminster Abbey company of bell ringers. You may have heard him ringing at the Queen's 90th Birthday, annual national services, the Queen's platinum Jubilee or, most notably the Queen's funeral.
