Our Franchise Experience

Simon Moxham

Simon trained as an accountant and held senior financial roles in blue chip companies including Fujitsu ICL and Rolls Royce. In 2000 he joined Pirtek UK as their Finance Director, and within a few years moved into a commercial role as European Commercial Director.

Simon has extensive experience in franchising and has worked with two former BFA Chairmen, who themselves were respected Managing Directors of Dyno Rod and Rainbow International. He has also worked with three former directors of the BFA who had senior roles in Greenalls Group Plc, Snap On & McDonalds.

While at Pirtek, Simon grew sales from £30m to £60m. He also designed and implemented a Job Management Solution for 600 users, and brokered and executed sales on the majority of the Pirtek network.

All in all, Simon balances an accountant's focus on cash and profitability with hard won commercial sense and a practical understanding of what makes a franchise great for a franchisee.
