Mike Coombs In 60 Seconds
I am a strategic and operational CFO with a record of international achievements in optimizing shareholder value in SMEs and start-ups by working closely with entrepreneurs to formulate and finance business strategy and developing strong financial planning and control functions. My passion for a portfolio career and lifestyle began when I co-founded an Anglo-Dutch clean tech business in 2015. I’ve had the pleasure of working with many inspiring business leaders around the region from Guildford and Horsham to Kingston upon Thames.
