I specialise in finance function development.
As a director in the business consulting practice, I develop finance functions that can support the needs of the wider business. That often involves improving areas such as speed of month-end reporting, the content of board packs, the efficiency of processes undertaken by Finance, or the overall structure of the Finance team. In most cases, the clients I help are those who are looking to “future proof” their back office ahead of their plans for growth, acquisition or listing.
Having started my career as an auditor in London and gained my ICAEW ACA qualification, I’ve since worked in Edinburgh and New Zealand before settling in Yorkshire in 2010. I have worked across a range of sectors, with a particular specialism in real estate and construction. Clients past and present include those that are private equity backed, listed (AIM and FTSE), privately owned and not-for-profit.
I live in a village north east of York with my wife and two daughters – mainly trying to get a word in edge ways!
