Meet the Team

Ollie has worked on Porsches professionally since 1993 and is considered one of the UK’s most respected technical experts. He has restored a number of significant Porsche models and has a real talent for finding innovative solutions to engineering problems. He is a perfectionist and ensures a very high level of fit and finish is achieved on all builds. Expert in chassis dynamics and real-world chassis tuning, his love of all things ‘GT’ places him perfectly to manage our Manthey upgrades for those looking to make the most of their Porsche on track.

Dave started working with Porsches in 1990 and has specialised in air-cooled engine rebuilds, manual transmission rebuilds and the restoration of pre-1974 911s, including RS and RSR variants. In recent years Dave has become heavily involved in full restorations of historic Porsche race cars, primarily 935 and 962 models. Outside of work Dave is in the process of restoring a Merlin engine recovered from a Spitfire that was shot down in WW2.

Chris’s experience with air cooled Porsche models is amongst the very best in the whole of the UK. Bosch Fuel injection systems (specifically K-Jet and Motronic) and early 911 fault finding are his particular strengths. Chris joined RPM Technik in 2018 after a 34 year stint with another well-respected Porsche specialist. Chris prides himself not only for his expertise on Porsche, but also passing on his knowledge onto others in training highly professional Porsche Technicians.

Neil joined RPM Technik after a period as lead technician at another Porsche specialist. He’s spent years working on rally and race cars, including a long spell looking after the track collection of various exotic vehicles at Bedford Autodrome. A father-of-two youngsters, Neil is a big fan of extreme sports, including skiing, motocross, riding classic motocross bikes, swimming… and punishing himself in the gym daily!

Dan has been a valued member of the Workshop team since he started his career with RPM in 2009. After successfully completing his apprenticeship, Dan has developed his skills to become a talented all-rounder, a very knowledgeable engineer and experienced with all models of Porsche up to and including the Carrera GT. In his spare time Dan, a genuine and friendly member of the team, is a keen go-karter who enjoys modding cars, helping his uncle restore classic vehicles, and attending track days. He’s also restoring a classic Lambretta scooter

There’s not much that Ricky doesn’t know about the Porsche brand – and he specialises in performance upgrades with a background in track day geometry set-ups on the GT models in particular. Over the last two decades he’s worked on all GT series cars from 992 GT3 back to 996 GT3’s. Ricky’s experience in GT and Manthey products is unrivalled in the UK.

He has over twenty years’ experience, with the last ten years being spent between Porsche main dealer and independent specialist. Coming from a family of classic car and track day enthusiasts, Steve has followed their footsteps and runs his own track day car and in 2018 was one of a handful of techs to be chosen to support a Porsche GB entry in the prestigious 2.0 Cup. His most recent role was focussed upon servicing, maintenance and upgrades, track prep and setups on GT models. Steve joins Ricky and Ollie as RPM Technik technicians who have been fully trained and accredited by Manthey.

A key member of Ollie’s Special Projects and CSR build team, Stuart started his career working alongside his father, a master fabricator. He joined RPM Technik in 2010 and has excelled in his role. His natural talent for bespoke fabrication is on another level. The father of three was also a member of RPM Technik’s GT3 Cup Car trackside team. Stuart is a big fan of drifting and also still rides his BMX bike – which he took up at the grand old age of five! He modestly admits to being a childhood and teenage local BMX celebrity, even being sponsored at one time.

Danny is a fully trained Porsche technician and previously worked at two independent Porsche specialists in London before joining RPM Technik in 2017. There is not much about the brand that will come as a surprise to this father-of- two. His primary focus is on water-cooled and GT engine rebuilds. Danny counts off-road cycling and modifying his beloved VW Campervan among his many outside interests. Like several of the RPM Technik staff, Danny is also into motorbikes – in his case a 1300cc KTM.

Steven is an avid Go Karting fan, diligently looking after his own kart and racing whenever possible. He came to RPM Technik from a different industry and as such is training under Ian’s guidance

Richard previously worked for other supercar specialists before joining RPM Technik in spring of 2025. He spends his time outside of work with his wife and two young kids whilst trying to get a game of golf in where possible!

Josh is a true lover of everything on two wheels, motorbikes of all types are his passion. Starting at RPM Technik as an apprentice, he is now a junior tech, working under the wing of our senior technician Dan.

Ian has been working with RPM Technik since 2006 and enjoys the technical aspects of Porsche. His role is pivotal in providing the technical resource to ensure consistency and quality are always maintained. He enjoys playing football and fishing with his son and family has been a follower of motorsport from a young age. Prior to working for RPM Technik, Ian worked at International GT level racing as an engineer on the Porsche 996 GT1 with G-Force racing.

Pretty much every Porsche that passes through RPM Technik gets seen to by Joe, detailing every sales and workshop Porsche we have through. When he isn’t at work Joe is spending time with his two kids or zooming around on his prized motorbike!
