Our Story

Founding partners, Craig Ferri, the clean shaven, smart one; and Doug Oldfield, the scruffier, bearded one, first worked together at Palisade (now Lumivero), the makers of the @RISK software.

​

Craig joined Palisade in 2003, after previously working in marketing positions in networking & bioinformatics. During his 16 years at Palisade, as Managing Director of the European operations initially, Craig oversaw the successful expansion of the business into the Middle East, Africa, India, and the Asia-Pacific region. A key member of the Palisade global leadership team, Craig was responsible for the strategic expansion plans of the organisation.

 

Doug joined Palisade in 2008, from a recruitment company called Montreal Associates which specialised in ERP recruitment. He was responsible for developing a new sales territory - the Middle East - and growing it into one of the most successful regions for the organisation. Due to the success in the Middle East, he also spent time growing the business in Africa, India, and the UK.

 

With more than 30 years combined experience in the field of risk, in 2020 they set up The Ferryfield Group. Ferryfield’s mission then, and now, is the provision of specialised services in the field of quantitative risk analysis (QRA).

​

Under their directorship, The Ferryfield Group now delivers thought leadership, and advisory services across a wide range of projects and diverse industries. They passionately believe that relationships are the single most important thing for businesses to nurture, and that ideal is enshrined within the values of The Ferryfield Group.
