James Sutherland

James is the Chief Risk & Compliance Officer for DAS UK Group, having previously worked in governance roles across Higher Education and Financial Services.

Whilst being fortunate enough to have never been directly impacted by meningitis, the indiscriminate nature and the potentially life-changing consequences of the disease are amongst the factors that motivate James’ involvement with Meningitis Now.

James is married to a maths teacher (Nicola) and has three children (Chloe, Theo and Esme). When not working, James is part of the team of leaders at the Tomahawk Scout Troop in Nailsea and at the weekends, can usually be found running around the Somerset countryside.
