S5 EP8: UK's Defence Hub at Duqm
Colonel (Retired) David Bennett played an instrumental role as the UK's In-Country Project Officer for the UK's Defence Hub at Duqm. He has worked in various countries across the Middle East and is highly skilled in project and operations management, particularly, in the international setting. In 2020, David swapped Duqm for Roland's Castle and began managing the beautiful Stansted Park Estate. A few weeks ago the AOS team had the pleasure of travelling down to his estate and recording the following podcast.
In this podcast, Lydia and David discuss the UK's Defence Hub at Duqm, the challenges faced during this project, and David's fondest memories of Oman.
