Matthew 'Ollie' OllertonEx UK special forces soldier and former instructor on Channel 4's SAS: Who Dares Wins In 1989, at just 18 years old, Ollie joined the Royal Marine Commando’s and toured operationally in Northern Ireland and Operation Desert Storm in Iraq. After five years of service, he was recommended for the Special Forces Selection and was only one of five out of a total of 250 candidates to pass the selection process. He then joined the Special Boat Service (SBS) and qualified as a special services combat frogman. It was on a human trafficking mission that he was inspired to start Break Point; Ollie, along with co-founder Jason Fox, teach people the value collaborating as a team instead of competing within the workplace. Upon returning to the UK for good in 2014, having spent over 20 years bouncing about military zones, he fronted SAS: Who Dares Wins and achieved overnight success. He is the best-selling author of Break Point and has released a further three books.
