With over 30 years of experience as a Finance Director in the manufacturing sector operating both domestically and internationally, Steven has a special interest in manufacturing, mechanical and electrical engineering businesses, and he brings a wealth of expertise to entrepreneurs and small business owners seeking to achieve their growth ambitions.
So why manufacturing and why SMEs?
Steven’s motivation is best summed up by the British Chamber of Commerce.
“SMEs and the manufacturing sector are the lifeblood of the UK economy, providing over 60% of private sector employment and contributing significantly to innovation, exports, and regional development. Their continued growth is essential for the UK’s economic resilience and global competitiveness.”
Throughout his career, Steven has consistently delivered strategic financial leadership, driving profitability and sustainable growth for different sizes of business. Now, he is passionate about leveraging this experience to empower smaller enterprises to reach their full potential.
He understands that excellent financial management is crucial for business success, and offers flexible, part-time expertise tailored to his client’s business needs. His services include financial planning and analysis, cash flow management, budgeting, forecasting, and strategic advice.
“I’m not your traditional bean counter. I’m a problem solver who dives into data, applies logic, and crafts straight-forward, pragmatic solutions. From finance to sales to operations, I break down silos and immerse myself in every corner of the business to uncover what makes it thrive—and how to make it better.”
Outside his business interests Steven is active in the charity sector where he is the Chair and trustee of a charitable trust and when not working, he likes to drive his Morgan sports car.
