Background
I'm a fully qualified accountant with more than 25 years of experience in Finance roles. During this time I have worked in permanent roles across a variety of business sectors, starting off my career in Financial Services then moving into Music and then into Advertising (where I have the most experience).
​​​​​
Fairly early on in my career, I realised how important it was for to me to work in a creative environment and be surrounded by creative individuals.
​​​​​​
Having worked in permanent roles in Advertising for more than 12 years, I decided it was time to make a change. I left my job as a Finance Director at a well respected Agency in order to work on a consultancy basis with smaller businesses, where I believed I could really have an impact on their future success.
To date this has been a great move for me. I enjoy working closely with business owners and being part of their journey to success. Working for multiple clients has not only given me a lot of variety in my work but also a wealth of experience to offer other businesses. I've never had to look for my next client - work has always come to me via recommendations and I take great pride in this.
​​
Whilst Advertising continues to be my area of expertise, I also work with other businesses and have been able to apply my knowledge to help them get through the often challenging initial years of being a small business.
