About

COO at Lloyd&Whyte As an ACA qualified accountant, I bring figures to life! I take the complex and make it simple for others. I closely monitor trading units (through accounts reporting) and work with the Divisional MD’s to ensure performance remains on track against Group annual budgets. I couple finance with in-depth IT and operational knowledge to lay the foundations in order to support the continued growth vision of the Group. I am well versed in M&A activity ensuring a smooth onboard experience. As a result of this, my Data and MI knowledge is strong having overseen the creation of a data warehouse/ lake and single source of the truth power BI platform
