Our Excel Specialists

After graduating In Physics and an MSc in Manufacturing and Management Information Systems I spent many years working in data processing/analysis and managing technical teams across the private and public sector.

Eventually I went freelance as an Excel consultant and started my own Excel Consultancy Agency… this one.

The best thing about running, an Excel Agency, is the very real contributions we make, to our clients lives. We often save people hours of drudgery and repetition on a DAILY basis. That MUST be increasing their well-being.
I wanted to offer a friendly and enthusiastic face for Excel.
I hope I am succeeding.

As a developer, analyst, IT project manager and consultant working for software houses and technical consultancies, I have more than 25 years’ experience helping businesses both large and small across a range of industries, from plant hire and construction through telecoms and scientific instrumentation to the retail finance sector. I have worked with Excel extensively throughout those years with particular skills in VBA as a result of my professional developer background. I have a PhD in Applied Physics, and my scientific training means that I have a very analytical and thorough approach.

I have worked with Excel on both Windows and MacOS, and have used VBA to connect to databases, URLs, and process JSON and XML. I also develop in VBA for both Access and Word and have experience of SQL databases.

I have more than 20 years of experience in IT Development, mostly in the field of SQL Databases, Excel RAD Development, Analysis and small Project Management.

I have worked with many major clients, including JP Morgan, Deutsche Bank, RBS, Schroeders, and Fidelity, as well as with smaller clients outside the City.

I have been working with Excel since 1999 and have developed various Excel models and tools for the companies for which I have worked.

Excel Development is about providing the best possible value to the client. Often best done by completing a project in stages that can be reviewed before moving on. To do this
I have developed my own set of tools. This gives greater control to the client and cuts down on development time.

I am here primarily as a VBA programmer. My background is in Active Server Page development and writing COM objects and ActiveX controls in Delphi, mainly for use in ASP or Visual Basic. I have been trading as a software company since 2001 selling a successful range of COM and ActiveX controls. I am relatively new to VBA but my solid programming experience and knowledge of VBScript and the related objects, such as ADO has proved valuable.

I take a pride in being able to write bespoke code quickly that can run efficiently. I am prepared to research more complex solutions, if required, and can make use of Windows API calls to add functionality to Office applications. I am not limited to simply adding basic automation to Excel. I do also have a good understanding of the Outlook and Word object models, which are often overlooked by Excel developers.
