David Irish
Partner
After graduating from Durham University with a degree in Politics I moved to London and began work as a recruitment consultant. After a year I decided the world of recruitment was not for me and started my career within consulting.
Prior to joining Berkeley I spent over 7 years at Accenture where my time was spread over a wide variety of clients and functional areas, including work with government agencies and implementing passenger biometric systems across UK airports.
I joined Berkeley in November 2012, attracted by the variety of work on offer and the ethos of the company being completely different to the larger consultancies – working collaboratively, in partnership with clients to deliver the right results. Since joining I have worked in a variety of IT transformation roles, across Retail and Financial Services, as well as Advertising and Marketing sectors.
Berkeley has also given me the opportunity to move abroad and I currently live in New York with my family. Outside of work I enjoy experiencing the restaurants of the NYC, travelling, and the vast array of sports on offer (both watching and playing).
