I am lucky enough to have worked with Mike for a number of years at Sopra Group. We worked together on subjects such as employee benefits and resolving some complex tax issues. Mike is a hard worker, a good communicator, and he really knows his stuff on Finance from both a UK and global perspective. He is a man of great integrity and someone that I would place my complete trust in.

Mike is efficient, hard-working, incredibly knowledgeable, very nice (an underrated attribute) and always made an effort to go that extra mile to assist. A great colleague and an excellent CFO.
