Early life and education
Melton was born in Turkey on 6 January 1962 and educated at Bedford Modern School and the University of Cambridge.[3]
Career
Melton began his working life in the personal care division of Unilever.[3] After 11 years he moved to Asda where he worked alongside Archie Norman at a critical juncture in the life of that company.[3] Melton’s peers at Asda included Justin King, Mike Coupe and Richard Baker.[3]
Melton joined Circle Health Ltd in 2008 and became CEO after the departure of Ali Parsa.[3][7] Being CEO of a private owner of a former NHS Hospital is arguably not without controversy and in an interview with The Sunday Times on 15 February 2015 Melton stated that his ‘job isn’t to be a ‘larger-than-life character. I’m not very fond of the media exposure I have had; it’s not my natural character’.[3]
