My career

My career as a Finance Director/CFO, IT Project Manager, Consultant and Finance Professional spans more than 30 years.

During this time I have been lucky enough to have worked with an interesting and diverse range of commercial, public sector and charitable organisation some of which are noted below. I particularly enjoy working with businesses, companies and organisations that play a part in making our society a better place.

I qualified as a Chartered Certified Accountant in 1997 and more recently completed the Financial Times Non-Executive Director Diploma. I keep abreast of developments in the charity and accounting sectors and have also studied forensic accounting, mediation and advocacy.  I have sat on several finance and audit committees and am currently a trustee and the treasurer of Disability Rights UK.

When not working I spend time walking my dog and like to catch up with friends and family in coffee shops and art galleries. I have recently relocated to Poole and am particularly enjoying exploring the Jurassic coastline.

I help organisations, businesses and companies of all sizes create the most efficient systems, processes and structures possible so that you can stop worrying about your back-office functions and focus on delivering your organisation's mission
