Louise Bedford

I fell into my first accounting role when I was 17 and have not looked back. I’ve worked in industries such as retail and distribution, communications, debt collection and financial services and have very broad financial experience. A large part of my role has been to oversee cash flow for the companies that I’ve worked for to enable them to pay their bills and buy stock, pay salaries or simply invest in what they want to, when they want to. This has evolved into managing working capital and planning cash flow, which I continue to do today. I moved into Business Cash Flow six years ago, initially as Financial Controller and now Head of Finance, and I am delighted to work for a company that is so pivotal in helping other businesses in managing their working capital.
