Biography

Biography

I joined Keele Business School in November 2016 as a Senior Teaching Fellow in the discipline of accounting. I have worked in the education sector since 2005 having delivered the syllabi for professional bodies such as ACCA, CIMA and AAT as well as for further and higher education institutions. Prior to teaching I held a series of progressive accounting roles mainly within the manufacturing sector, I was the Financial Controller for a multinational electronics manufacturer, finance manager for a telecommunications company and a financial controller for a traditional pottery manufacturer.

As well as core accounting roles I have also worked in many niche markets such as European Treasurer for a multi-national organisation (ICL) where I was part of a team preparing and facilitating a company through IPO (initial public offering). I have undertaken challenging roles such as business acquisitions and factory closures, both in the UK and overseas. 

The years of working as an accountant greatly informs and supports my teaching and ensures I provide a balance of academic and vocational content in my subject delivery.  I am a qualified CIMA accountant (Chartered Institute of Management Accountants), and am regularly involved with developments and events with my professional body.
