Dr Francis is a practising senior planner working across major UK infrastructure programmes, with a portfolio that spans nuclear construction, HS2-class infrastructure, oil & gas EPC programmes, and complex civils. The True Troop Consulting was founded to bring that working-day rigour into training rooms — without the dilution of generic course-ware.
