Straight Bat. Financial Clout for mid-corporates

PLCs that I have helped in the last 5 years

  • UK Finance Director - Diomed Inc (US Group)
    A developer of minimally invasive medical procedures that employ laser technologies and associated disposable products.
    • Stood in as Locum Finance Director - picked up the financial reins quickly and efficiently

  • Finance Director - Augean Plc
    A market-leading waste management group
    The Chairman  included the following statement in the published accounts for 2006:-

    "A special thank you particularly to Clive Gilham, who did so much good work on  an interim basis before handing over the financial reins to Peter Southby."

    • Within two years of formation the group was running at £27m of Turnover, employing 111 staff and was generating considerable amounts of cash.

  • Finance Director - Beauford Plc
    Engineering group
    • A tough and somewhat sad task to wind down a Great British business that could not respond quickly enough to cheap foreign imports – my main aim being to save the business from total ruin. Not only was this achieved but all of the individual business units continue to trade today.

  • Executive Director- Gartland Whalley & Barker Plc:
    A private equity firm that specialises in developing small to medium sized enterprises.
    • Assessed companies hoping to sell to GWB and was also their trouble-shooter – sorting out financial problems in their investments, both across the UK and in the USA.
