"delete: Geoff Lord (born c. 1945) is an Australian businessman. Lord first appeared on the BRW Rich 200 in 2005 with a net worth of A$115 million.^[1] In 2020, Lord's net worth was assessed at A$569 million.^[2] Lord did not reach the threshold for inclusion on the 2021 Rich List.^[3]

Lord is a non-executive director and investor in Judo Capital.^[4]"

"and replace with: Geoff Lord is an Australian Businessman and the Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive of Belgravia Group.

1. Why do you have "businessman," "founder," "chairman", and "chief executive" capitalised? "Businessman" should never be capitalised; it's just a common noun. We don't capitalise job titles here: MOS:JOBTITLE. Ditto "Services Company." Please don't capitalise these ordinary words (on Wikipedia or in real life); it is a badge of marketingspeak.

2. Please do not use inline external links to make articles appear bluelinked. See WP:ELNO. Use correct Wikipedia reference technique.

3. "Family-run" is a compound modifier and must be hyphenated per MOS:HYPHEN. But it's not appropriate to use Lord's biography to go on about Belgravia Group. See WP:COATRACK.

4. Please stop calling him "Geoff." If you know him well enough to call him by his given name, you are too connected to him to be writing about him. If not, you are being very presumptuous.
