Director of Finance and Operations at a growing national and international legal services LLP. As a member of the Strategic Leadership Team, my key responsibilities include the strategic financial stewardship, management and control of the organisation.Previously I was with PwC for 26 years where I gained significant experience managing the implementation of complex major financial improvement programmes across a wide range of public and private sector organisations; addressing improvement needs for people, processes and systems. For example, leading a number of programmes within Finance Functions to improve both quality of service and to deliver efficiency savings. Through a combination of audit and advisory experience gained at PwC, this has given me a thorough understanding of the financial regulatory frameworks across these sectors and how this links with the financial planning, monitoring and reporting cycle. I have worked with a wide range of private and public sector organisations, covering local authorities, health trusts and central government departments including their agencies and NDPBs. Local and central government experience has been gained from a combination of financial advisory project assignments and secondments to senior financial positions across major central government departments and London Boroughs. Specialties: Delivering improvements in financial stewardship, development and management across large and complex organisations.
