Alex is a co-owner at organic veg box company Riverford, where he works as a software engineer in the IT team. He enjoys the juxtaposition of the highly technical IT systems and naturally wonky, organic veg strangely satisfying, and once sent a potato into the stratosphere with the help of some children in the local primary school. Since Riverford's transition to employee ownership, Alex has been keen to explore what it means to be an ethical employee-owned business. He is the founder of an internal debate group, 'Earthics', and a passionate advocate for climate issues.
