Tim Bayley

Tim Bayley left Loughborough University in 1983 with an Honours Degree in Mechanical Engineering and joined British Coal as underground shift charge engineer. With an eye for the figures, he moved over to the Regional Headquarters and held various Project Management roles on an exciting major project to develop one of the largest new deep coal mines in Europe, which he saw through to the planning application phase.

He left to pursue more Senior Project Engineering and Project Management opportunities throughout the world, reporting at board level to large corporations. The projects included various goldmine developments in West Africa, managing capital expenditure in excess of $100m per annum, a $150m carbon black production facility in Canada and aluminium processing plants for both China and India.

Tim set up his own engineering consultancy practice in 1997, offering project services to the water and sewerage treatment industry, which he operated through to taking over The Business Partnership Birmingham Office in 2002.

As our longest serving Regional Partner, Tim’s experience across all sectors is significant. Having helped many Engineering and Manufacturing company owners exit, he feels that this area is perhaps his speciality. The grounding in Engineering and Project Management has obviously helped pave the way in this sector. Having said this, he has also been heavily involved in many service industry and e-commerce company sales in recent years.

Tim’s true passions in life are following Rugby and playing Golf (and taking Nikki out for a nice meal!)
