“The one thing I have learnt over the years while working with skilled consultants is the need to communicate financial information in clear and understandable words that spell out the issue and encourage forthright decisions. It is essential to ensure that you know all the questions to ask to get to a position of being able to advise colleagues well.”

Based in Pennsylvania, Elliot heads our Finance team and, as a member of the Management Team, is our hands-on champion of all matters impacting commercial performance and administrative efficiency. He influences and supports the Board and Management Team and other Project Managers on financial and wider commercial matters, enabling them to leverage their core skills more effectively and profitably.

Elliot complements a team which by nature is predominantly less numbers or commercially driven, as a pro-active coach and sparring-partner.

Elliot has worked extensively with a range of leading consulting firms involved in both sustainable development and communications. From the mid-1980s to mid-1990’s he was Commercial Finance Director of a leading European communications consultancy. He also has experience of working as an accountant in both the retail fashion trade and property development.

He was a founding member of the UK PRCA’s finance director forum within the PR industry and became a member of the Consultancies Management Committee that provided a wide range of advice to agencies of all sizes.
