Having built and run a large company secretariat within a fast growing FTSE100 company I have personal experience over many years of recruiting and working with company secretaries. I work closely with clients in order to provide the best long term fit for their business. By focussing on technical expertise to match the personal fit and corporate needs I have helped many of the UK's largest companies to improve the structure and operation of their company secretarial teams.Before setting up Ingen Partners I was a director of Capita Registrars and previously a stockbroker advising major institutional fund managers. More recently I competed in two legs of the 2017/18 Round the World Yacht Race from Liverpool to Uruguay and New York to Liverpool on PSP Logistics.Specialties: Search and selection of company secretaries for large listed organisations, either on a permanent or interim project basis. Corporate governance frameworks for IPO preparation and transition.
