Adrian was a joy to work with; never afraid to speak out and challenge but always in a positive and constructive way. We spent a lot of time recruiting together as well as working on the DfT portfolio and his approach to all things work related never altered; professional and determined to do the best for the organisation and always with his lovely sense of humour to the fore. I’m sending heartfelt condolences to his family, friends and colleagues, he will be missed by all.
