Investment Manager

Contact

I joined Sovereign as an Investment Manager in 2021, drawn to the firm's exceptional track record of supporting high-quality businesses to deliver transformational growth through a strategy of Buy & Build.

Being part of the Sovereign team gives me a great opportunity to work with talented entrepreneurs and management teams and use Sovereign's capabilities to help businesses develop, scale and become the market leaders of tomorrow.

At Sovereign I focus on software, data analytics and information platform businesses across the UK and Europe.

I am particularly interested in high-quality, resilient business models in the areas of technology services, software, data and information platforms, areas Sovereign is increasingly active in. It's a great fit for me.

Before Sovereign I was at Ondra Partners, a boutique corporate finance advisory firm, advising listed companies on M&A and debt and equity capital markets situations, covering all sectors from software through to industrials and biotech.

Prior to this I was in Deloitte's M&A Advisory team, where I qualified as a Chartered Accountant, having started my career in the private equity fundraising team at UBS Wealth Management.

Outside of the office, I am a keen tennis player and snowboarder, and enjoy travelling.
