Vergo Retail Ltd

I initially joined Vergo in April 2009 as the Assistant Financial Controller.  During the interview process the existing Financial Controller indicated he planned to retire during 2010.  Following his retirement I was promoted the position of Financial Controller in March 2010.

Vergo expanded rapidly in 2009 with the acquisition of 5 stores in March and then a further 12 stores in July which took the number of department and homestores it operated to 20 with a turnover of £50m.

On 7th May 2010 Vergo entered Administration and consequently it is with regret that I am seeking new employment.  My principal role includes:

Production of daily and forward looking cashflow forecasts
Negotiating with suppliers regarding payment plans
Production and review of Management Accounts
Productions of annual budgets and cashflow
Cost reductions and restructuring project
Management and recruitment of a team of 10
Implementation of store reports across newly acquired stores
National Statistic returns
Member of the senior management team, reporting directly to the Managing Director
Company Secretary
Liaising with auditors regarding year end audit and going concern review
Working with administrators to provide key information regarding the financials of the company and its operations.

Despite entering Administration my brief employment at Vergo has provided me with broad experience, both positive and negative, in acquisition, system integration following acquisition and people management during a period of recession and limited working capital.
