"I am delighted to have been given the opportunity to work in the Piraeus office. The U.K. Club's Greek membership has long been an
influential and innovative force driving Club policy and development. Any mutual thrives on the energy, enthusiasm and expertise of its members, and I look forward to working with and learning from our Greek shipowners."
Clacy joined Thomas Miller in 1986 and has worked closely with eastern Mediterranean and Middle East members. He was first appointed an area
director in 1995. He has a degree in
nautical studies and is a master of business administration.
