ABOUT ME:

A hospitality profitability specialist with over 30 years' experience across multi-site pub estates, branded hotels, and high-volume food and beverage operations.

I specialise in identifying where profit is being lost in F&B businesses — and implementing practical, site-level changes that improve margin, control, and performance.

My background combines operational leadership, financial control, and internal audit. I've held full commercial responsibility across a multi-site £10m turnover hospitality business, led food and beverage cost control within an 800-bedroom conference hotel environment, and most recently led internal audit across a 30+ site pub estate — focusing on stock control, cost of sales integrity, and operational discipline. That breadth means I understand how profit is created, where it is lost, and how to fix it in real operating environments.

I've delivered up to 25% EBITDA in high-volume F&B operations and strengthened financial control across £12m+ hotel environments. This isn't about producing reports — it's about pinpointing root causes and resolving them at site level.

Experience includes:

• Multi-site pub estates, including RedCat Pub Company
• Premium restaurant brands, including Marco Pierre White Restaurants 
• High-volume hotel operations, including Hilton Birmingham Metropole

I work with hospitality operators to:

• Identify hidden profit leakage across stock, cost of sales, and operations
• Improve gross profit accuracy and margin performance
• Strengthen stock control and financial discipline at site level
• Turn financial data into clear, actionable operational change
