Peter Shakeshaft
Qualifying as a Chartered Accountant in 1970, I have spent my career in industry and have held a number of positions as either chairman or chief executive of a variety of organisations for the past 30 years. During my career I have dealt with many complex business issues and led boards to effective decision making on a wide variety of matters. Whilst my core competency is finance, I have broad experience across a wide spectrum of skills including general management, strategic thinking, operational direction, investment and government policy.
