I am a seasoned CFO and scale-up leader with strengths across strategy, finance, and operational excellence.

Whilst at Oxehealth I built not only a robust finance function, but also oversaw the build-out of our HR and Legal and Compliance functions, as well as stints serving as interim CTO and CEO. I delivered over £20m of fundraising over several funding rounds, including equity and debt, building a broad network of UK and international VC investors and bringing in several new shareholders. As HR leader I have also personally lead several rounds of restructuring in order to drive the business towards profitability.In an earlier stint at OVO Energy I saw its rapid growth from £100m to £2bn+ revenues, serving as Finance Director for its acquired insurance business Corgi Homeplan, and leading integration efforts for the SSE Retail merger.
