A Software Technology Professional of over 20 years. An alumni of Edinburgh University, I spent 10 years developing alternative investment software at Accounting Frameworks and eFront. Experience which became the insights for founding a cloud-based configurable software solution, in 2011.

Later Co-founding Bridge Fund Solutions, then sold, solidified my belief in the deep-rooted need for technological change in Financial Services.

A degree in Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence has combined with 20 years of experience of marketing and sales. The combination of logical thinking, a creative aptitude and developing insightful strategies has delivered strong growth across numerous brands in the FMCG market. From billion-dollar master brands to relaunched challengers.

The ability to work in global, multi-tiered organisational structures, to start-up and scale-up businesses has given me a uniquely structured and entrepreneurial approach.

Through 35 years’ experience founding, growing and selling accounting software organisations I’ve seen many changes over time. The one consistent is the need for change.

In 2001, I founded and and become CEO of Accounting Frameworks, later sold. Following this experience I co-Founded Bridge Fund Solutions in 2014, once again successfully transitioned to the next stage of growth.

I now mentor and advise businesses I believe can revolutionise the industry.
