Episode 82We are joined by The Rt. Hon. Lord Mayor of London, Alistair King, to explore the pivotal role of financial services in driving UK economic growth.
As the Head of Industries, I am responsible for advancing our Industries, Propositions, and Channels strategy, focusing on integrated thinking to benefit our current and future clients by leveraging our firm's skills and sector expertise to make a lasting, positive impact in our chosen markets.
Previously, I oversaw our Risk and Regulatory Advisory businesses at Grant Thornton and led the Board and governance effectiveness offerings at Grant Thornton as the Head of Large Corporate & Governance, where I worked with a variety of organisations, both within the UK and Internationally to enhance their decision-making environment and was involved in developing Grant Thornton’s governance database.
I also oversaw the team dedicated to enhancing Grant Thornton’s presence in the FTSE 350 market and authored Grant Thornton’s annual Corporate Governance Review.
Prior to these roles, I was a partner in the restructuring team. Outside of work, I am dedicated to my family and enjoy consoling my sons over Crystal Palace losses, as well as indulging my love for travel and sports, stemming from my southern hemisphere roots.
