I’m a QBE finance professional with 30+ years’ experience, having worked my way from Finance Clerk through to Finance Manager, Financial Controller and Head of Finance within SMEs. I understand the real pressures of small and medium-sized businesses — where time is tight, cash is king, and accuracy matters.

My expertise sits firmly in month-end oversight, challenge, and sign-off. I bring a second, senior set of eyes to your numbers — validating reconciliations, reviewing WIP, checking HMRC returns, questioning cashflow assumptions, and ensuring your month-end pack stands up to scrutiny. I provide the kind of independent review and assurance that owners, MDs, and FDs often need — without the cost or commitment of a full-time controller.
With deep experience across manufacturing, GRNI, invoice discounting, banking procedures, SOPs, and management accounts, I help SMEs strengthen their financial processes and build confidence in their numbers.

Systems experience includes Xero, QuickBooks, Sage, AX, SAP and Navision.

I can invoice outside IR35.

Serving: Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire & Buckinghamshire.

Open to discussing engagements further afield.

If your finance team does the hands-on work and you need someone senior to review, challenge, and sign off — I’d be happy to talk.
