About Simon

I help financial institutions, investors and leadership teams solve complex credit, portfolio and financing challenges.

With 10+ years of experience across private credit, structured finance and asset-backed transactions, I bring both strategic perspective and hands-on execution. My background includes end-to-end ownership of complex projects, from initial analysis and underwriting to structuring, stakeholder alignment, decision-making materials and execution.

I typically support clients on projects such as portfolio reviews, underwriting frameworks, financial modelling, transaction advisory, investment cases, committee materials, strategic assessments and cross-functional delivery. I am particularly comfortable in situations that require combining analytical depth, sound judgement and clear communication for senior stakeholders.

What sets me apart is my ability to turn complexity into structure and action. I can quickly break down a problem, identify the key drivers, build a practical framework and deliver outputs that are both rigorous and decision-ready. I also bring a strong cross-border perspective, having worked on transactions and strategic topics across multiple European markets and with a wide range of stakeholders.

My core areas of expertise include credit strategy, portfolio analytics, structured finance, working capital and receivables-related topics, as well as broader execution support for high-stakes finance projects.

If you need someone who can combine technical credibility, strategic thinking and strong execution on demanding projects, I can help.
