Executive summary

I am an audit partner in our Leeds office with 25 years' experience in delivering assurance services, both within practice and within industry. I work with a wide range of businesses with experience of Reporting Accountant work for growth businesses coming onto the Markets through to working with Large Private/Private Equity/International businesses across a range of Sectors.

I aim to bring a trusted relationship and proactive advice to those I work with, helping businesses navigate what at times can be a complex set of accounting and auditing considerations.

I joined BDO in 2015 having been a client of BDO for 3 years between 2011-2014, enjoying and valuing the support and advice given to me to help navigate the inevitable challenges within the Organisation I was working for.

I bring that empathy and ethos to my relationships today, knowing what it can feel like on the other side of the desk. I love working with ambitious, career orientated people, which aligns with building a group of audit professionals in Leeds twice as big as when I joined and continuing to grow/thrive.

A recent work highlight (in 2024) was performing the Reporting Accountant role on the UK's largest IPO of that year, with Applied Nutrition Plc.

Outside of work, I'm a keen Sportsman, albeit more watching than participating these days, enjoying walking (occasionally running) and spending time with the family (my wife and two daughters).
