Joining me today is Chris Newman. Chris graduated from the University of Westminster with a degree in Business Studies and decided to pursue the CIMA qualification through his role with London Stock Exchange. He went on to work for Pearl Assurance and Norwich & Peterborough Building Society for the next 8 years before joining Ascential. Here, Chris spent 6 years, progressing to Group Financial Reporting Manager and then project managing the development of a new budgeting & reporting process. He then joined Experian as Head of IT Finance before ultimately progressing to FD. After 10 years at Experian, Chris moved to Fiserv and has now relocated to New York, where he is responsible for Mergers and post acquisition integration.  You can also watch this episode on my YouTube channel.
