Built by an Accountant. Not a Coder.
Most AI consultants are coders who learned business. I spent a decade in enterprise finance — Visa Europe, the Cabinet Office, UKHSA — then learned AI. Now I build the missing link between what a care agency delivers and what it bills.

For years I worked in the financial guts of large organisations — Visa Europe, the UK Cabinet Office, the UK Health Security Agency. I learned how a business actually works underneath the story it tells about itself: the numbers, the operations, the quiet places where money goes missing.
Enterprise finance teaches you to think in one question: does this reconcile? Every hour delivered should match an hour billed. Every cost should have a reason. When the two sides of the ledger drift apart, someone is losing money and nobody can see it.
Then I looked at independent care agencies and found the same drift, only worse. The care system and the finance system never talk to each other, so the gap between them goes unchecked. I build the reconciliation between the two, hand over a weekly dashboard, and stay on to read the numbers with you. I show you the return first, then build the system that delivers it.

Why a Finance Background Changes the Work
Most AI consultants show you what’s possible. I show you what reconciles.
P&L Thinking
Every finding gets measured in revenue recovered or cost saved. No vanity dashboards, no clever demo that leaves your billing exactly where it was.
Risk & Evidence
Years in public-sector finance taught me what an auditor looks for. The same gap that costs you money is the gap a CQC inspector will find. I close both at once.
ROI First
I show you the return before I build anything. One live engagement turned up £86,400 a year in recoverable value against its cost, a 14:1 return.
From Enterprise Finance to Care Operations
2009-2015
Visa Europe
Finance & Operations
Worked on the financial operations behind payment processing at scale. Learned how a small, unchecked gap multiplies into millions when nobody reconciles it.
2015-2020
UK Cabinet Office
Public-Sector Finance
Finance and delivery inside government. Saw how good systems save money and bad ones bury it, and how much rides on the evidence trail being right.
2020-2024
UK Health Security Agency
Financial Operations
Financial operations through the COVID response. A setting where every process failure had real consequences and data governance was never optional.
2024-Present
Core AI Solutions
Founder, Care Operations Diagnostics
Building the reconciliation between care systems and finance systems for independent, CQC-registered domiciliary agencies. The Care Operations Review first, then a pipeline and a weekly dashboard, then advisory.
Why Care Agencies, Specifically
I niche on one problem in one sector. A care agency runs two systems that were never built to talk to each other, and the gap between them is where revenue leaks and inspection evidence goes missing.
Care System
Nourish, Birdie, CareLineLive, PASS
Records what your carers actually deliver.
The unchecked gap
Lost revenue and missing CQC evidence
Finance System
Sage, Xero, QuickBooks
Records what you bill and get paid.
How I Work
I Do the Work Myself
No outsourcing, no junior handoffs. You work with me from the first review through to the dashboard that runs afterwards.
Finance-First Analysis
Every finding comes with a figure attached: what the gap costs, what the fix returns, and what an inspector would make of it. A business case, not a wishlist.
Your Systems Stay Yours
Your team keeps Nourish or Birdie. Your accountant keeps Sage or Xero. I build the bridge between them so the numbers reconcile on their own, every week.
I Stay On
Once the pipeline is live, I keep reading the numbers with you and flag what matters. Advisory, not setup-and-vanish.
My Mission
“To give independent care agencies the same financial control the big providers take for granted. Every hour you deliver should be an hour you can bill and evidence, without anyone chasing it by hand.”
