SKILLS
ABOUT PAUL H.
I work at the intersection of finance, operations and technology, helping mission-driven organisations run with clarity, discipline and long-term resilience. My focus is building the systems, processes and visibility that allow teams to move quickly without losing control of the fundamentals.I specialise in:• Finance & cashflow oversight – forecasting, risk analysis, audit readiness, investor reporting and creating predictable financial environments in fast-moving organisations.• Operational design & leadership – building structures that scale, reducing single-point dependencies, and improving day-to-day execution through practical systems and clear ownership.• Technology strategy – shaping realistic, cost-aware tech roadmaps, setting milestones, and aligning product development with organisational priorities.• Compliance & governance – GDPR, documentation standards, investment process QC, and the frameworks that reduce long-term risk.• AI-enabled efficiency – embedding AI into workflows to reduce manual load and speed up decision-making across teams.I’m at my best when turning complexity into something workable: taking tangled organisational structures, scattered responsibilities or opaque metrics and replacing them with clarity, accountability and momentum. I enjoy working with founders, operators and investment teams to create environments where good decisions become easier and bad surprises become rare.If your organisation sits anywhere between early-stage venture building, climate innovation, or multi-entity operational complexity, and you need someone who can connect the financial, operational and technical dots, that’s where I tend to fit.
