Chief Scientific Officer

Dr Niall Quinn

Niall is Fathom’s Chief Scientific Officer He helps shape the company’s scientific strategy and ensures structures are in place to facilitate the efficient, rigorous and collaborative creation of novel IP across the science teams. Niall is the head of Fathom’s coastal modeling and works closely with the catastrophe modeling team to aid in the development of probabilistic flood event sets.

He was one of Fathom’s first employees, joining in 2017 after spending four years as a post-doctoral Researcher at the University of Bristol working on flood risk prediction. 

Niall continues to enjoy working for the firm all these years later, thanks to the friendly office atmosphere, and the ability to continue working in an area that aligns closely with his PhD in modeling tide-surge-wave interactions, which he obtained from the University of Southampton prior to his move to Bristol.  

Outside of work, Niall loves playing sports, hanging out with family and taking his dog on long walks.
