Q&A

What’s the best part of the work you do?

Two things. Firstly, I made a conscious decision to work with businesses where I could get to know the people whose lives advisers were changing – this gives me a real buzz. When clients are too large everyone you meet is really an employee. Our clients have capital at risk, and they are making decisions that impact real value and the lives of their families and staff. That is a unique pressure and a unique privilege.

Second is the wonderful people at Price Bailey. Going into an office I am surrounded by people I genuinely want to spend time with. It is a wonderful feeling and I’m proud of the quality of teams we have around us.

Most rewarding client moment?

The thrill of seeing a business go through those big transactions when they raise money or buy a business is incredible. I do advise on selling businesses too, but I much prefer the toil and reward of growing them first!

What do you like to do outside of work?

Outside of work, I’m learning to fly single-engine planes and have taken part in long-distance expeditions across nearly every continent, travelling by almost every means of transport. I’m also an avid football fan and regularly watch matches at all levels.
