Nick Pulford - Global Finance Director

Profile

Nick joined WSP Environment & Energy at the beginning of 2006 as Global Finance Director. His role has many dimensions but his main responsibility is to develop strategies for business growth and steer the business in the right direction through that growth. Since his appointment the business has grown tremendously, not just in terms of people and revenue, but also in geographic scope.

 

WSP has external shareholders that need to have comfort that their money has been invested wisely, that the business is being well controlled and has the right balance for growth. Part of Nick's role is to ensure that the business has adequate controls in place to ensure this (for both legal and management assurance), whilst at the same time not stifling our entrepreneurial spirit.

 

He is also responsible for the negotiations and due diligence associated with the conclusion of the acquisition of companies, that supplement our organic growth.

 

And his background...

Nick is a qualified accountant with 16 years PQE. He has worked in a number of business sectors both in the UK and overseas, including manufacturing, food, retail and oil. His experience is wide-ranging, not just the traditional finance areas but also strategy and planning, M & A, treasury, legal and business change / improvement.

 

Nick has been able to bring some best practice from his past experience to WSP, ensuring we maximise the great opportunities that we have here at WSP Environment & Energy.

"The business is poised for the next stage of its expansion, and to that end we need to invest further to grasp that opportunity. We will be investing in new management information systems in 2009, to enhance many areas of the business, not just Finance. This will support our CRM activities, our matrix structure, project management and resource utilisation. I will be leading the Global roll-out of this project."
