Meet Oli, your modelling guy

A former tier-one investment bank analyst and exited Ecommerce founder. I’ve built financial models for companies ranging from startups (including my own) to conglomerates doing multi-billion in revenue.

If financial modelling feels like a slog, I want to help

For 10 years, I’ve built financial models for successful businesses to take their high-stakes decisions - whether that be investment cases, fundraising, budgeting, FP&A or M&A. I’ve been on a mission to prove that any business can benefit from a model when they are made relevant, easy-to-use and built by someone who really understands what its like to run a business.

After splitting the last decade between investment banks and running (and exiting) my own e-commerce business, I started Scaleup Models to give CFOs, finance teams and founders at every Ecommerce business access to the same high spec financial planning tools usually reserved for the world’s most valuable companies.

Investment Bank Equity Analyst

For 6 years I worked as equity analyst and financial modeller for global investment banks including Jefferies, Nomura and Berenberg in London. I covered sectors including internet, media, energy, utilities and renewables.

Ecomm Founder & Operator

I founded, scaled and successfully exited an operational and tech heavy e-commerce business called ReThread in 3 years (which included a feature on BBC news!)

Financial Modelling Consultant

After selling ReThread, I founded Scaleup Models as a financial modelling platform for startups and scaleups. I've built 100+ bespoke models for clients including Outerspace Ops, ThisWorks, Psymplicity and Green Monkey Chocolatier.

What do customers say about me?

(Because it wouldn’t be British to blow my own trumpet)

“Working with Oli has been a joy! The fully integrated model he built for us was comprehensive, completed in in record time, and incredibly easy for us to work with. The internal workings of the model "just work" and, unlike with other models we've had, we don't spend hours debugging the model itself but get to focus on commercial decisions.

Phew, now that's out the way, can I help?
