Specialising in working with audit committees and internal audit functions, I am also experienced in board reviews, risk reviews and assessing external audit effectiveness.

I lead Independent Audit's services advising and assessing internal audit functions.  I have worked with FTSE 100 and FTSE 250 companies, mutuals and overseas companies.  My clients include HSBC, Unilever, Schroders, Rentokil Initial, Fortis, Galiform, Catlin, The Crown Estate and British Energy.

I have authored a number of articles on internal audit and I am a regular contributor to the IIA journal, Internal Audit and Business Risk, and was commissioned by them to write a series of articles on internal audit effectiveness.  I also speak regularly on internal audit and audit committee topics at conferences.

I have been a partner in Independent Audit since its formation in 2003, previously being a director at PricewaterhouseCoopers.  I am a Chartered Accountant and hold an MBA from London Business School.
