Having worked with Luke for many years at Cambridgeshire, it has been such a shock to hear of his passing. Luke was one of those people who you would always look forward to meeting with, even if the actual subject of the meeting was some thorny HR problem or investigation. He was fantastic at his job, always provided sage and thoughtful advice, and had a real gift for cutting through complexity to get to the root of an issue and reach a clear conclusion. Luke would never let a meeting finish without clarity on who was going to do what, and by when. More importantly, he brought his personality and sharp sense of humour to every meeting, made us laugh, and always showed genuine care and warmth towards the people he interacted with and the people affected by HR processes. I feel very lucky to have worked with Luke, and I will miss him hugely. My thoughts are with his family at the moment. Thank you for everything, Luke.
