Geoffrey Fredrick Lord (born March 28 1945) is an Australian businessman and investor, best known as the founder, chairman, and chief executive of the Belgravia Group.
In regard to his childhood, Lord has previously called himself a "working class boy".
[9] Lord began his career in 1965 with the Ford Motor Company before joining Henry Jones IXL in 1973, where he was promoted to the Board in 1978.
In 1985, Lord established Elders Resources Limited, a public company, and was appointed as its chief executive and deputy chairman.
This decision came after Lord established that, having been overseas at the time of all issues, he could not have possibly attended such a meeting or been involved.
As evidence, Lord produced his passport, airline tickets, hotel bills and minutes from the Elders Resources board meeting, which proved his absence from the country.
Belgravia focuses on medium developments of under $50 million each, with many areas pertaining to different markets.
[17] In Addition to launching Belgravia, Lord put money into King Island Dairy and a property portfolio including Buckie Station.
