Mark G.

Finance Writer | Equity Research | Content Strategy | Finance Manager

Former CPA and native English speaker with 20 years of corporate finance experience across global and national leaders, including Goldman Sachs, Marks & Spencer, and Tabcorp. I partner with discerning financial service clients - including investment research houses, fintechs, and AP-syndicated publishers - who require more than just "content." I provide the strategic frameworks and technical rigor necessary for organisations that cannot afford to get the message wrong. In a market saturated with generic, low-quality output, I bridge the gap between complex financial data and authoritative, on-brand messaging. My work focuses on three core pillars: Strategic Advisory: Defining the message, audience, and technical calibration to ensure content drives commercial objectives. Governance & Frameworks: Building toolkits, SOPs, and editorial standards that make high-quality, technically sound communication repeatable. Technical Delivery: Producing high-stakes editorial and research-driven pieces where accuracy, judgment, and institutional voice are non-negotiable. Whether you need to inform investors, support decision-makers, or build trust with a sophisticated audience, I help you get the message right before it goes out. If you are tired of burning time and effort rewriting poor-quality submissions or managing inconsistent narratives, I provide the professional, accurate delivery you need to move your pipeline forward without friction. My goal is simple: providing institutional-grade clarity to quality clients. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Formerly a finance manager and corporate business partner, I have expertise in leading financial planning, analysis, and commercial decision-making within complex organisations. I can guide your team through designing and implementing processes and controls to ensure strategic targets are delivered. I specialise in partnering with technology business units and have extensive experience with the intricacies of accounting and finance matters relevant to IT departments. Areas of expertise include capex and opex management, project partnering, business case development, finance training, policy development, and accounting for all things technology - including software development methodologies, digital transformations, Agile integration, and much more. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PLEASE READ BEFORE SENDING INTERVIEW REQUESTS Due to the volume of requests, I kindly ask that any interview requests or emails "reaching out to discuss" articulate as clearly as possible, the brief, a practical estimate of the amount of work required (words, hours, etc), and any necessary budget. Doing so will ensure that I can give your proposal the appropriate consideration.
