About the firm
A deliberately small practice, built around senior judgement, honest counsel, and the experience of having lived with the decisions our clients now face.
What sets us apart
Counsel from a professional who has spent decades holding senior financial responsibility inside businesses — not observing from outside. The guidance you receive comes from someone who has carried the consequences of the same decisions.
We tell clients what they need — not what generates the longest engagement. If a piece of work is unnecessary, we say so, even when it costs us the billing.
A deliberately small client roster. Every engagement receives senior attention — not a junior team with a senior name on the letterhead.
The Founder
The Founder of Ethical Services is a senior finance professional with nearly four decades of progressive experience — most of it spent inside businesses, not advising them from outside. For 25 years, Director and Group CFO of a diversified business group operating across construction, hospitality, real estate, luxury marine, and family-office affairs — managing financial affairs at significant scale, across multiple jurisdictions and asset classes.
The Founder has bought and sold businesses, built tailored financial structures for risk, taxation, and inheritance, and negotiated financing and investment terms with European banks and law firms — and worked alongside high-net-worth principals on personal wealth management and family-office matters. The earlier career spanned Swedish-led large-scale construction projects, industrial groups in textiles and manufacturing, and a foundational period in chartered accountancy practice.
The Team
Ethical Services brings together complementary strengths — senior judgement, technical depth, emerging-technology fluency, and a wider network engaged precisely when a matter demands it.
A senior qualified finance professional with more than two decades in financial-services practice in the United Kingdom — bringing deep technical knowledge of UK regulation, tax, and corporate finance.
A young professional with an MSc in Finance & Technology from the University of Glasgow, bridging traditional financial practice with emerging technology — including AI applications, digital systems, and automation.
A dedicated back-office function providing IT support, data management, and day-to-day processing — the operational backbone that keeps engagements running smoothly and allows the senior team to focus on advice and judgement.
Behind the core team sits a private network of associated professionals — lawyers, auditors, tax specialists, Shariah-compliance scholars, and sector experts across the UK, the Gulf, and Europe — engaged selectively according to each client's specific requirements. This means clients receive precisely the expertise a matter demands, without the overhead of a large fixed firm.
