Peter Shoobridge

FD/CFO

Strategic CFO with 30+ years’ UK and international experience. I help founders scale, raise, or exit by cutting through complexity, building solid financial foundations, and driving performance. Fractional or full-time, I focus on outcomes and bring clarity, pressure-tested judgment, and a sharp commercial edge.

Track record highlights

  • Rebuilt the accounting and finance infrastructure of a growing international business, averting operational breakdown and enabling sustainable growth.
  • Designed accounting and reporting systems that accurately reflected a diversified group’s real-world operations, allowing leadership to understand and control both finances and performance.
  • Aligned finance, marketing, sales, and operations to function as a unified engine of double-digit growth then leveraged that collaboration into a successful acquisition and integration strategy.
  • Raised critical internal and external risks with senior management, challenging groupthink and surfacing blind spots some of which later proved existential.
  • Introduced technology solutions that improved monitoring, measurement, and decision-making based on the principle that what isn’t measured can’t be managed.
  • Helped shape and negotiate commercial agreements that created strong foundations for lasting, mutually beneficial partnerships.
  • Led finance and strategy during a three-year journey to a successful exit, driving improvements across the business. When due diligence came, our numbers were clean, our performance strong, and our innovation internationally recognised.
