We were delighted to support FluidOne with the appointment of their new Chief Financial Officer, Graham Dickie CPA, FCCA. FluidOne, a London-based provider of IT and telecom services to UK businesses backed by Livingbridge, worked with Jack Lane, Managing Director, who facilitated the introduction. Graham shared his thoughts: “It was a pleasure to work with Jack at Finatal in securing a PE CFO role back in the UK. I’m very pleased to have joined the team at FluidOne for their next stage of growth.” Jack added: “We’re thrilled to have supported FluidOne and Livingbridge with the appointment of Graham for the CFO role. He came highly recommended by an interim CFO we’ve placed multiple times, as he was looking to relocate to the UK—a true testament to the strength of our exceptional PE finance network.” Congratulations to Graham on his new role and to FluidOne on their new hire. #CFO #privatecapital #privateequity #perfectlyplaced
