Simon Michaels

I am a director in HW Fisher Business Solutions, the business support arm of HW Fisher. Specialists in providing back office and CFO services, HW Fisher Business Solutions works with a wide range of clients, from start-ups to established businesses across many industries and service sectors.

I am a qualified Chartered Accountant, providing business and financial consultancy to a range of corporations. I offer a flexible solution to managing corporate finances, which is tailored to suit each client’s needs.

As a Chief Financial Officer, I have demonstrated my strategic and commercial skills at Group Board level and have a proven track record in the review of acquisition targets, due diligence and business integration, as well as providing a hands-on approach to assess the broader strategic issues.

I have held senior financial positions in both private and public companies, including Harvey Nash Group plc, the specialist recruitment services provider. I was Finance Director of the Group’s UK & US Operations for three years and, prior to that, Finance Director of UK Operations.

I have worked with many businesses over the last 10 years, helping businesses through various stages of their business life cycle. As CFO and Board Member I was instrumental in the sale of a number of owner managed businesses.
