I’m a Chartered Accountant who enjoys the practical side of finance—helping teams get clarity, stay steady, and grow in a measured way. My work spans healthcare (community pharmacies, domiciliary care, GP practices), technology-led startups, and global enterprises. Over time, I’ve seen that when finance is set up thoughtfully, it supports better decisions across the business.
I lead an accounting and finance outsourcing practice that partners with UK and overseas businesses. The focus is simple: reliable, high-quality support without unnecessary overheads. In day-to-day terms, that means building clear processes, transparent reporting, and systems that fit each client’s stage and needs.
What I Do
I work at the intersection of numbers and strategy, giving founders, leaders, and investors a clear view of what’s happening and what to do next.
Financial modelling & forecasting: Scenario-led models for planning, fundraising, and board updates.
Cashflow & treasury: Practical working-capital routines and liquidity planning so the business can breathe.
Management reporting: Lender-ready, board-ready MI packs with plain-English commentary and actions.
Cross-border finance: Intercompany flows, transfer pricing, FX, and operating cadence across jurisdictions.
Outsourced finance function: A scalable alternative to in-house teams, from solid core processes to CFO-level oversight.
Venture Scouting & Investment Lens
Alongside client work, I scout early-stage opportunities in areas like healthcare innovation, AI hardware, the creator economy, and sustainability. I try to look at companies as both an operator and an investor.
This helps me:
Look beyond valuation to resilience, scalability, and financial discipline.
Turn numbers into narratives that investors can trust and act on.
Notice emerging pockets of growth (e.g., D2C lab-grown diamonds, healthcare consolidation, SME-focused SaaS).
My approach is neutral and data-driven. Founders get clarity; investors see both risk and potential, without overstatement.
How I Work & What I Value
Ownership, precision, and steady progress matter to me. I aim to keep conversations calm, honest, and useful, with an eye on the bigger picture and the small details that make it work.
Outside of work, I find balance in:
Spiritual exploration: More spiritual than religious; authenticity, patience, and compassion guide me.
Creative pursuits: Literature, music, and theatre keep me curious.
Travel & experiences: Cultural trips and quiet retreats that leave me a little wiser and more grounded.
Looking Ahead
Finance is shifting—from record-keeping to insight and enablement. I’m curious about how AI, automation, and no-code tools can make good finance more accessible, timely, and accurate. My path blends hands-on practice with a gentle dose of entrepreneurial curiosity. Whether supporting a scale-up, evaluating an early-stage venture, or experimenting with simple digital products, I care about being useful, fair, and consistent—so people can make better decisions with confidence.
