I joined CDS Global in 2001 in the Accounts Department, becoming Financial Controller in 2011 and ultimately being appointed Finance Director in 2018. I also oversee HR, Health & Safety and a lot of legislative responsibilities for CDS Global.
I am a chartered accountant (CGMA) and I thrive when using numbers to validate decision making or to assess performance of the business and it’s various functions.
I am a keen Liverpool fan, but have recently taken on the management of my daughter's football team. Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my wife & three children, and as a hobby I am an enthusiastic (but admittedly limited) Jiu-jitsu student.
