What do you do?

It’s very much a blank canvas. Having the freedom to make the role your own, underpin the rest of the team with insightful analysis and see generated opportunities convert, is highly rewarding. CF provides me with the opportunity and responsibility of driving our future deal flow from interesting, emerging sectors where we know we’ll be engaging with like-minded highly entrepreneurial business owners.

Why do you do it?

I’ve been involved in numerous sell-side pitch opportunities where I’ve been able to support the process with analysis, quite often helping the client understand the value they’ve created and gaining clarity on who would be an ideal partner for them going forward.

Our teamwork to pull all of the different components of a pitch process together has to run like clockwork, so seeing a winning end result this way is absolutely priceless!

What’s on top of your bucket list?

It has to be a trip to South America to see the many ancient sites and incredible geographies. Machu Picchu to Easter Island to Patagonia, it all must be done! Who knows, I may even be able to work and travel provided the wifi holds up..
