About
I lead process re-engineering and systems implementation to drive robust governance, improve usability, provide quality data and increase ROI. I apply a trusted business partner approach to establish a balanced view of commercial strategy vs financial implications to deliver business objectives. I assemble and lead high performing teams, embedding a culture of excellence to manage succession planning. I analyse business ‘road-blocks’ to lead cross-functional change management projects that leave a future legacy.I am a practical, hands-on commercially focused CFO with significant technical accounting and management accounting experience, having held progressive roles in both globally operating commercial groups and owner-managed businesses. Notable achievements have been:◼️ Led development of processes/systems for ChinaSearch, enhancing financial data, achieving a Bounce Back Loan, reducing 1 FTE, reducing 50% IT budget and doubling new product sales.◼️ Developed future strategy for Skansen, to support restructure, reduce overhead costs and complete outstanding contracts.◼️ Restated 3 years of accounts for EnergyQuote, gaining a clear audit report and putting the company on a firm footing to enable sale.I ensure that I have a clear understanding of why the company exists and how my teams can support these objectives. I enjoy the variety of undertaking project work, partnering with others to solve problems and undertake transformation activity to develop a platform for the future. I have a passion for passing on my practical knowledge to develop talent and drive best practise.
