Most financial planning and professional services firms don't have a growth problem. They have an execution and clarity problem. That's what I fix. I'm a strategic finance and operations consultant with over a decade of experience across financial services, wealth management, and consulting-led business operations. I'm the Managing Director of Astute Business Partners, a consulting firm that has delivered 10,000+ advice documents and served 30+ financial planning and wealth management practices across Australia and New Zealand. I've sat inside these businesses. I know where the bottlenecks are, why offshore engagements fail, and what separates practices that scale from ones that stall. I don't just advise, I've built and operated the systems myself. What I work on: ✦ Fractional CFO & strategic finance — financial modelling, forecasting, cash flow strategy, and senior financial advisory for practices and SMEs that need CFO-level thinking without the full-time overhead. ✦ Financial planning practice consulting — operational health diagnostics, capacity planning, process design, and growth strategy for advisory and wealth management firms. ✦ AI business strategy — helping professional services firms identify where AI reduces cost, accelerates delivery, and creates competitive advantage, with a practical implementation roadmap, not a whitepaper. ✦ Business transformation & operational design — offshore readiness, process improvement, org design, and systems thinking for founders who've outgrown how they built. ✦ Startup strategy & financial modelling — investor-ready models, business cases, and strategic planning for founders raising or scaling. Background: MBA in Strategic Finance (University of Bedfordshire, UK). Chartered Member, CISI UK (Chartered MCSI). Former HSBC Global Banking & Markets. UHNW portfolio management. UK and AU/NZ financial services. ISO 27001 certified delivery environment. I take on a small number of Upwork projects at any time. I'm selective, not because I'm scarce, but because I only take work I can do at a senior level. If your problem is complex, the stakes are real, and you want a commercially sharp operator in your corner — let's talk.
