I have been in business for 40 years, 30 of which were at boardroom level; the scars on my back are real.
I built and ran a successful SME for 28 years, and worked 10 years in multinationals.
People have suggested my background is broad and eclectic, which I’ve found helps me empathise with the under-pressure SME owners that I now work with.
These business owners have found the experience I bring as an Exit Planner, NED and consultant atypical, insightful and practical.
With Merger and Acquisition experience gleaned running an SME for 28 years, and being a founder of a VC backed Pharma venture, I have hands-on experience and a particular passion for Exit Planning.
Working closely with the business owner, I provide an experienced ear to under-pressure leaders which has proven to be tremendously rewarding for both parties.
I’ve been called “my first port of call” by one Managing Director
I have been in business for 40 years. I successfully grew a small UK business from 6 to 49 people operating internationally. I’ve worked with people in the biggest corporations down to the smallest entrepreneurs. The common factor was that they came to me seeking success. Success for their brand, their company, for themselves. I was a talent shop for gifted creatives and strategists. In the end, it’s all about people. I now want to work with energised entrepreneurs using my experience to help them achieve their goals.
