He has particular experience in the fields of technology, digital media and broadcasting.

Chambers describes him as “very commercial and sensible,” and that “he looks for the best way for the client to get what they need.”
Adam is a long-suffering Millwall fan and appears to have successfully indoctrinated his children into following the family tradition.
