Meet Craig
Founder of ACRE Consultancy
Craig established ACRE Consultancy in August 2020 following a successful track-record in REACH focussed regulatory consultancy. Craig previously worked as a product steward and REACH manager for INEOS Nitriles, as lead registrant for key portfolio chemicals and catalysts. This provided extensive real-world experience of navigating the REACH regulation and its related responsibilities.
Before REACH Craig worked in the regulatory department for BASF Biocides, in the UK having spent more than ten years of his early career in leading contract laboratories specialising in ecotoxicology.
There he progressed from bench to functional management which provided an ideal grounding to develop a regulatory career.
