Providing freelance management accounting support for a range of SME's and UK subsidiaries of European and US manufacturers. This business was acquired by Avalon Management Accounting Limited in January 2012.

West End based marketing communications agency highly respected within the marketing community. The business expanded from £17m to £20m, to 170 staff during my tenure with a complete restructuring of the financial reporting framework into business units. Operating profits almost doubled during 2 years for which I like to think the new information systems were the enabling factor. Also managed the finances for a £1.2m move of premises during this time.

First exposure at the cutting edge of hard decision making with this Berkshire based marketing agency, the company expanding from £2m to £6m and 14 to 40 staff in 6 years, including acquisition of a support services company and set up of a second company within the group.

Gradual progression though the ranks for a regional firm of Chartered Surveyors with 50 staff and 5 offices.
