Pride of place among the 12 golds are two that Ed won at the Olympic Games – one in Beijing in 2008 and one at the London 2012 Games (where he also won a bronze). In the World Championships, he managed five golds, three silvers and a bronze. While in the European Elite Championships, he collected another staggering five golds and a bronze medal between 2010 and 2014.
Add to this the silver medal Ed won at the 2014 Commonwealth Games and it’s easy to see why audiences love to hear the stories this Olympic speaker has to tell. Previously a member of the British Cycling Academy – which also included such major stars as Geraint Thomas and Mark Cavendish – Ed is well-known for combining an incredible sprint with impressive endurance.
As if being on the 250m wooden tracks wasn’t sufficiently adrenaline-inducing, when Ed isn’t indoors he’s racing motorbikes and cars at motorsport events. In 2018, Ed joined the Vitus Pro Cycling Team for the 2019 season, reflecting his constantly developing skills as a cyclist. A popular booking opportunity, Ed can bring your event to life.

"Ed is a true professional and role model; approachable, down to earth, meticulous, knowledgeable yet always willing and wanting to learn more... That is why we were so keen to have him as our brand ambassador. For the past three years, he has continued to naturally align with the values of our organisation and has proven to be a huge hit with our clients, especially during the difficult times of the COVID lockdown. Without hesitation and despite facing the personal disappointment of the 2020 Olympics being delayed, he joined numerous clients' Zoom Calls and attended live webinars and Instagram Lives to help motivate and inspire our clients through what is an extremely challenging time for everyone. Ed is the consummate professional and we look forward to continuing our flourishing relationship long into the future."

"Colleagues' wellbeing is at the forefront of Marsh’s agenda and to help us promote men’s mental health, we asked Ed to kick off the discussion about what mental health means to him and the ways in which he has overcome challenges when faced with highly stressful competitive environments. Being male and a sportsman bridged the gap nicely when it came to discussing mental health within a male-oriented industry. The corporate world of insurance is very different to that of an athlete; however, Ed’s thoughtful approach encompassed the importance of taking control of your mental health, regardless of what industry you work in. Ed’s message was relatable, honest and very well-received across the business. Ed is a great role model not just for his athletic capabilities; he has an incredibly humbling presence that always promotes positive engagement."
"- Leah, Co-Chair of Mental Health, Marsh
"I have worked with Ed on a number of occasions in his role as an ambassador for Marsh in the UK. He is very easy to work with and his insight into teamwork, elite performance and delivering success translates to business seamlessly"
"- Alistair, CEO of UK Corporate Business, Marsh
