Get closer to the people who matter

A masterful sausage maker.

I began my career in accounting at HML Group, an AIM-listed estate management business, working closely with P&Ls and identifying inefficiencies that delivered cost-saving measures across large property portfolios. This built a strong foundation in financial control and commercial awareness.

I then moved into fund management at Octopus Investments, where I developed a clear focus on analytics, refined my management accounting skills in a fast-moving investment environment, and began linking financial data directly to decision-making.

Next, I joined a multi-billion dollar ASX-listed travel company. My role covered:

• Internal audit
• Pricing analytics
• Commercial accounting

This expanded my scope beyond reporting — I was influencing pricing strategy and driving performance across the business.

I later progressed into senior leadership roles within Omnicom Group, a $22bn global organisation, starting as Financial Controller before becoming Finance Director. In these roles I:

• Led finance teams
• Owned financial strategy
• Partnered with senior stakeholders
• Delivered commercial and operational improvements

Alongside this, former colleagues began reaching out for fractional Finance Director input, which led me into working closely with software startups. There I developed a focus on:

• Building strong financial controls
• Creating scalable reporting systems
• Supporting founders through growth stages

Over time, I have helped multiple founders secure 8-figure exits.

Most recently, I was approached by Consius to lead their finance function.
