SKILLS
ABOUT BEN STEWART
Having been involved with boxing for over twenty five years as a boxer, coach and paid employee for the National Governing Body and GB Boxing, I have developed a wide range of skills and knowledge around the sport. I am committed towards developing the sport and increasing access to it, giving more people the opportunity to experience the benefits boxing has to offer, creating opportunities and shaping lives. Through my various roles with England Boxing and GB I have refined my negotiation and communication skills, often having to be the mediator between various stakeholders operating at differing levels. I thrive in working as part of a group towards a shared goal, but I am extremely capable of working alone and motivating myself.
