Sir Frank Whittle, Coventry

As an Engineer at heart creating a false vision is impossible. On appointment to the board of Directors at i-Prophets Richard delivers a passion and drive to the company that enthuses all that work for it.

"Learning is something that never stops. On a day I don't learn something new I probably haven't done anything!" Richard Hipkiss, i-Prophets Energy Services.

 

Individual Mission

Strategic direction is the core function I perform in the company. I maintain strong associations with the Chartered Institute of Building Services Engineers and the Energy Services and Technology Associations. This ensures that i-Prophets not only stay in touch with the market but that we are instigators in changing it.

Background

Entering an Electrical Engineer apprenticeship on leaving school that led to a HND in Mechatronics. The first ten years of my career was spent working in the Water Industry, developing skills as a Controls Engineer, Project Manager and Contracts Manager. Much of the technology installed in the Water Industry can now be seen utilized in building control. Before joining i-Prophets I spent eight years at Schneider Electric on a fast track Management program for high potential candidates.

Outside i-Prophets

A young and energetic family provides immense enjoyment outside of i-Prophets, with much time devoted to ensuring that my children have the same great upbringing as I did. Time is precious and enjoying it with friends and family is essential to the clockwork of life, a Guinness or two is always nice as well. For quiet time, (which is rare!) a game of golf defiantly doesn't spoil a good work, it normally turns it into a ramble!
