David is a Chartered Accountant, senior finance professional and strategy expert with significant corporate finance experience. He will join Scott Peters in Quantuma’s Birmingham office, supporting businesses in the Midlands region.
From his roles as both a corporate finance adviser and an executive director, David has over 30 years’ experience in guiding companies on their needs and advising them on the most appropriate solutions.
