This was turned down at AfC with the comment "Wikipedia is not a job listing website or a PR webhost and that's what this article currently is, only existing to advertise what there to say about his career and what he himself would advertise about himself; the sources are all trivial and unconvincing and there's simply nothing establishing notability." The creator, an undeclared CoI editor, decided to publish the article anyway. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 12:20, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

 * I see the times, (twice) an entry on the Sunday times top 500 influential list, this article from The Guardian and possibly this article I can't read (due to paywall) from the Financial Times. So I doubt the sources are entirely trivial. The nature of the article is another matter, it is questionable whether there should be this sort of article on Wikipedia when considering the WP:NOT guideline.
