Mark Buist
Expertise: Running a profitable client focused company. Also skiing and BBQ's
Years of experience: 20
Couldn't live without...going for a walk or doing some kind of exercise every day
Is definitely...going to buy a VW camper next year. I will, I will, I will!!
Would love to...build my own house
Wishes he was...able to juggle and play the guitar (but not at the same time. That would be clever!)
In another life would be...wearing a large afro or dreadlocks
The little things that make me smile...the notes my children write to Father Christmas and the Tooth Fairy!
Richard on Mark...
"Mark is an inspiration to us all and has a very hands on and matter of fact approach to running the business. He always has an easy manner making him approachable and accessible to staff, suppliers and clients. It is partly this style of leadership which has given Penguins its flexible, honest and personal approach. However, Mark is also not afraid to make decisions and will not back down from a fight, sometimes in tough situations and coupled with his years of experience, this gives a natural authority which is of great benefit to all. Relatively better dressed than his co-director (but that doesn't say too much)"
