I am a highly motivated, driven and commercial finance executive with extensive financial and regulatory experience across multiple utility businesses. As Chief Financial Officer I benefit from more than 25 years’ experience in the two principal finance roles of Group Controller and Group Treasurer, giving me a capability second to none, to lead all aspects of technical finance and corporate governance faced by a listed business. I am a bold and inclusive leader, confident in my own ability to deliver, and resilient to adversity in an uncertain world.
