# About I enjoy leading mid-sized businesses through challenging periods of change, usually following a transition of ownership or outside investment. Right now that's at ParentPay Group, where in the last five years we've put more than £80m into redeveloping legacy products and completed seven acquisitions (including the carve out of ESS from Capita plc) to create the largest specialist education software group in Europe. # I'm also a long-time NED/trustee of a number of education-focused institutions. London is home. Most of my time outside work goes towards my young family. In a questionable (and clichéd) mid-life experiment I'm also an endurance runner. A long time ago, I studied Mathematics at Cambridge and got my MBA from Stanford GSB. --- [email protected] · [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/in/a-p-uk/) ---
