  • The company has 4 subsidiaries all accounting for different company undertakings, including, SaaS, Leasing, Payroll, Truck Rental charges including service/maintenance charges
  • We decided to bring the accounting function back into the office from an outside CPA company this decision driven by bank balance issues and incomplete asset finance journals and calculations.
  • AR was done through a factoring company via their internal TMS, I had to ensure all loads were invoiced correctly and catch up on loads not invoiced. Vendor invoices were also then correctly entered and reconciled.

Finance Manager/Controller/Purchasing Director

Centralpoint Building Supplies Ltd
01.2018 - 12.2020
  • Headhunted by company owners to transform the financial operations of the company
  • Using Sage 50 and QuickBooks accounting software and Sage payroll software
  • The first task was to reconcile all expenses as the company was breaking even on a 6.9 million GBP turnover
  • Reducing overheads, lighting, rent, staff salaries and bonuses, bank charges and general operating expenses
  • Inventory control using FIFO, cost accounting (job) and purchasing management required auditing and I found that we could save massively with blanket orders and call offs of products regulated for busier and less busy times of the year, this was an exhaustive process taking weeks to evaluate and implement
  • All told we were able to hold station against industry cost increases and gain more custom through this new operational efficiency
  • The company dealt heavily in cash transactions with both public and trade customers requiring a fail safe procedure for reconciling cash registers, credit card payments, BACS transfers (ACH) and papal, as well as international clearing house reconciliations
  • I introduced the cash allocation and reconciliation process (this allowed clear sight of all financial transactions through excel reports linked directly to the individual transaction) I have always believed that live financial reports are necessary for company owners to make the best fit decisions moving forward, to this end I take full responsibility for ensuring the COA BS and P&L are audit ready on a daily basis
  • The internal changes made, not only increased turnover but also profitability, as well as reducing expenses, we reduced damages to assets and increased our employee numbers to account for the trading upturn.
  • I continued with the new branch as a remote accountant from 2019 until the end of 2020, very much undertaking the same financial and controller responsibilities.

Finance Manager

R&B Whalley Plant Hire
11.2015 - 12.2017
  • Responsible for all accounting requirements, statutory reporting, VAT, Payroll, Asset Depreciation, Work schedules, Hire and Lease charges, invoicing, AR and AP (Debtors and Creditors)
  • My daily duties included reconciliation of banks, credit cards and international investment accounts, foreign currency exchanges and international billing
  • Working alongside the Managing Director to ensure maximization of turnover (income)
  • The introduction of lease software helped with the 2 day billing as we were invoicing to the value of 3.6M GBP per week
  • The company assets were all heavy plant machinery and worth a great deal with in excess of 100 units and the accessories that went along with them.

Director/Owner

Label Line UK Ltd
05.2008 - 05.2014
  • Following a short spell as an International Sales Manager, working alongside foreign exchange students and international placements, myself and a colleague decided to go into business together, we started Label Line UK Ltd in January of 2008
  • The timing could not have been any better, the financial recession of 2008 had been in effect for 3 months
  • We believed this would be a fantastic opportunity to integrate our new company into the everyday lives and operations of the UK food Industry, supplying labels, printing equipment and ribbons across the UK and western Europe
  • We recruited 1 sales manager and performed all duties ourselves, by the conclusion of 2008 we had 3 staff and were generating income of 240K GBP
  • The start of 2009 brought more recruitment and financial stability, we had implemented our business plan to a tee and were now generating income in excess of 1 million GBP
  • Further recruitment continued through 2010 and 2011 to the point we had 14 staff and were now offering preventative maintenance to all customers (including the expertise of 3 service engineers)
  • It was during this period of growth that we were awarded the runner up prize in the best new business of 2011, to this day my proudest achievement (excluding my 5 year old son and amazing wife)
  • The growth continued and in 2012 we bought our new premises and opened the doors to customers including, Schweppes, Formula One Management, Pepsi UK and Britvic, unfortunately both my father and I were diagnosed with Cancer, I won my battle but unfortunately my father lost his, this devastation forced my selling of my shares and leaving the company
  • It is still in operation and has grown tremendously since.
