ANDREW SALKELD
My name is Andrew Salkeld.
I am a Chartered Accountant and member of the ICAEW. I started my career training at PwC and specialising in Corpoate Finance, working on mergers and acquisitions across the world.
Following my move into industry I focused on business intelligence, data and analytics. I worked diligently building reporting systems and tools to increase efficiency and provide timely information to allow leadership teams to make more responsive, data driven decisions.
After numerous industry positions I now find myself as Finance Director at a Leeds based tech company called dscvr, whilst also acting as a mentor and advisor to other start-up and scale-up companies.
I am also a Psychologist, positioning me as one of only a handful of people in the UK who holds a dual qualification as an accountant and psychologist. I help businesses and their people understand the impact of their financing and corporate structure upon their employees.
I hold degrees in Mathematics with Physics, Financial Mathematics and Psychology.
