What is my role?

As part of my role at River, I monitor investee companies, attend boards as an observer and facilitate the appointment of NEDs and an on-going analysis of management teams. In addition to this, I advise and influence investee company boards in areas of strategy, financial management, recruitment, remuneration policies, as well as providing assistance in external fund raising for portfolio companies, by debt, equity or grant. Also, I guide and influence portfolio companies to deliver profitable and timely exits.
