Background

About Mick Ward

I am a dedicated and detail-oriented financial accountant known for my strong analytical and problem-solving skills. With almost two decades of experience in the financial accounting field, I have honed my expertise in financial reporting, financial operations, and capital management, with a focus on the re/insurance industry for over 15 years. My passion lies in streamlining processes through the strategic use of technology and data to drive efficiency and effectiveness. I've consistently championed the cause of improving operational workflows through the strategic application of technology and data-driven solutions. I have achieved success in identifying inefficiencies and transforming them into streamlined, high-performance processes. It's not merely a part of my job; it's an intrinsic part of who I am. Beyond my financial career, I hold a UEFA B License as a football (soccer) coach, boasting 11 years of experience coaching men's first teams. My coaching journey has been a rollercoaster ride, from clinching Premier Division titles to facing cup final victories and losses, promotions, and relegations. Throughout this journey, I've relished the opportunity to make a real impact on player performance, utilizing open training sessions and one-on-one guidance to help athletes reach their full potential. In both my financial and coaching roles, I find immense satisfaction in making "things" better, whether it's facilitating swift ball movement with low risk on the pitch or revolutionizing accounting processes with automation and innovation. Above all, I am deeply committed to unlocking the untapped potential in individuals, fostering their growth, and guiding them towards their peak performance. This dual passion for process optimization and personal development defines my professional journey.
