Julian Scott-Reid
Professionally qualified Business Mentor and Coach, Serial Entrepreneur, NED, Board Advisor, Chartered Accountant and Angel Investor.
I'm passionate about helping Start Up founders, entrepreneurs, owners of established business, Finance Directors/CFOs and CEOs wanting to succeed and significantly improve their businesses and themselves. I give my clients Accountability, Clarity, Confidence and Focus to help them to think strategically and build a better business.
As an Angel Investor for many years, I’ve had the opportunity to mentor the owners of many businesses. I enjoy working with Start Ups and new businesses to help them achieve their ambitions. In equal measure, I love to help entrepreneurs, directors/SMT of established businesses, sharing my significant experience, knowledge and wisdom. While I have extensive experience in the property and the finance sectors, I have also mentored across tech and many other industries.
Having established 4 businesses from scratch myself, I know what it's like to have an idea and then turn it into reality with all the challenges and ups and downs. I have worked in business for 35 years and have operated at Board level on the financial and commercial side for multi-billion pound corporates, successfully scaling those businesses, including using my skills to negotiate with banks and raising hundreds of millions of pounds of equity from investors.
I'm a member of the Association of Business Mentors and a mentor on NatWest Bank's Accelerator, Help to Grow, 20/20 Levels and the Centre for Entrepreneurs.
