Andy Eaton ACA

Managing Director at Mount Business Services Ltd

I am a qualified Chartered Accountant and have managed to spend the last 30 years doing the things I love - turning around difficult businesses, implementing new processes and driving change, all leading to growth. I have been lucky enough to travel to all corners of the earth to do this and met many fascinating people along the way. 

What drives me is the ambition to make things better, easier and more efficient through logic and reason. I have turned failing finance teams into best in class, implemented ERP globally, established global accounting functions from nothing, managed the tightrope of bank covenants and PE investors and bought and sold companies.

Whilst these are not the normal attributes of a Chartered Accountant I believe the training and education I received at PwC augmented by the process reengineering experience at GSK has been fundamental to my way of thinking and analysing issues and resolving problems.

In my down time I enjoy rowing on the Thames and open water swimming every week come rain cold or shine.  I enjoy most sports especially rugby and football although a lifelong support for Derby County FC has proved testing at times.
