I am an experienced senior executive and Director with 20+ years experience; initially as an advisor across the banking & finance and corporate advisory sectors, and then in leadership and board roles across manufacturing, sales & distribution, private healthcare and disability services.I was fortunate to start my career under the guidance and mentoring of some high calibre finance professionals, who afforded me exposure to complex, varied clients, across a wide range of industries, and at various stages of their lifecycle. As a result I had a front row seat to see the factors that separate the good from the great, and household names from those that “could have been”.Working in the finance industry also allowed me to build a network of exceptional professional advisors across banking, corporate advisory, private equity, legal and accounting; a network which I continue to draw upon to this day, to the benefit of my clients.When the option arose to move into an operational leadership role, I jumped at the chance as it presented an opportunity to work with another high calibre executive, on an exciting growth path, requiring me to personally put into practice the advice I had previously been providing to my client base.Since that time I have lead a variety of businesses; from those undergoing full corporate restructures, to expansion overseas, businesses operating within complex and highly regulated industries, and an organisation requiring turnaround management.I formed Lighthouse Strategic Consulting (www.lighthousestrategic.com.au) in 2024 and now work with businesses seeking a competitive advantage, providing a variety of solutions.I am also currently:• Advisor to Oxygen Group (a boutique advisory, management and investment firm)• Director at New Guardian (an acquirer of historically successful Western Australian SMEs)• Non-Executive Director at Spa Electrics (the leading manufacturer of premium underwater LED lights for new & existing pools and spas, with offices in Australia and USA)
