Ian Robson

FD/CFO

As a CFO, I have had over 30 years’ experience working with owner-managed, family-owned businesses helping them to overcome challenges and maximise their potential. I have been involved with business restructuring, strategic expansion plans, and successful exits. I have joined The CFO Centre, as I believe my wide-ranging experience will be of benefit to companies looking for a fractional CFO.
