Speaker: Graham Penman, Regional Partner, YRH
Graham Penman: Hi. I'm Graham Penman, the Regional Partner for the West Country.
How do you help SME businesses?
Graham Penman: I run a team of experienced and skilled Financial Controllers and Finance Managers, and the biggest part of my job is to meet business owners, stakeholders and businesses and find out about them, their business, what their wants and needs are and hopefully give them the finance person that's going to help them achieve their goals.
Who are your clients?
Graham Penman: My clients are businesses that have found themselves in a position where they have a skills gap or maybe somebody's left, and they've got to a position where they actually need to bring in the skills and expertise of a Financial Controller or a Financial Manager, so they're typically ambitious growing businesses.
Why are you passionate about your work?
Graham Penman: I'm passionate about our business because when we get it right seeing the results and what the work that we achieve with our clients, helping those business owners simplify their finances, make more money, be happy and what they do and have more time to do what they enjoy doing is absolutely fantastic.
What makes YRH Finance Team different?
Graham Penman: What makes me different is that I'm passionate about relationships, relationships with clients and relationships with the principals that work for me, making sure that they're getting what they want from the relationship and the clients are getting what they will need from it. And from that being that fulcrum in the middle. You know, helping being the facilitator is really what I enjoy doing most.
