from The Leadership Lounge Podcast · host Stuart Waddington

In this episode of The Leadership Lounge, we Dive Deep: From Competitive Swimmer to Navy Diver with Rob Hinton. The average body is 60% water, in the case of Rob, this is unsubstantiated - as he has been swimming competitively since age 4. On a rugby trip to South Africa, he found his love of diving and started his diving career there in 1999. Always one for a challenge, Rob entered the Royal Navy as a direct entry Clearance Diver candidate. Of the 29 candidates on his Aptitude only 3 passed, Rob being one of them, thankfully. Rob then went on to have a successful career, carrying out mine clearance and bomb disposal on sea and land. Serving in: Fleet Diving Unit 2, HMS Inverness and Northern Diving Group. After the Royal Navy, Rob dived commercially for 14 years working in oil & gas all over the world. Along with being a founder of Hold Fast, Rob was an assistant instructor for military rebreather courses - working across the continents. Apparently, Rob has a sense of humour!
