I joined NML when they were a small web design company working with local businesses and helped them to grow into the well known Social Business Consultancy, working with FTSE 350 companies, that they are today.As a part-time FD I began by introducing rigorous financial structures and reporting systems, then I moved onto designing workshops to develop their communication skills - which is the backbone of creating good teams. Their consultants now deliver these skills to their own clients.

Big Finish was a group of companies operating in the TV and Film Post Production Sector. As group FD I worked with new start ups and very established SMEs. The group was owned by several large corporate companies throughout its life so I also experienced a range of corporate structures and cultures. I sat on the board of over a dozen companies, helping them to devise visions and strategies to compete in a rapidly changing environment. TV broadcast moved from offering less than five TV channels to multi-channels. The business model moved from being financed by licence payers and advertisers, to attracting audiences choosing which channels they were willing to pay for. Attention spans shortened as channel-hopping increased, which impacted how and why commercials were being made.Strategic solutions included mergers, acquisitions, closing companies, opening overseas companies, becoming more innovative, agile and therefore more responsive to audiences. Editing equipment became more affordable allowing for a lower investment to enter the market and therefore staff retention became challenging. Employee empowerment became essential so that ideas were being generated by more participatory, stimulated and valued teams who felt involved and loyal to companies.
