Spotlight on Scott Stacey, Account Manager
"You don't learn to walk by following rules. You learn by doing, and by falling over" - Richard Branson
With a business career spanning more than 30 years, Scott Stacey knows business. “I began my career as a Chartered Accountant, working in senior finance roles in Australia and then the UK; so I understand everything in business has to have a financial impact”.
This commercial acumen is something he has lived by throughout his impressive career. With 15 years experience in global HR consulting firms, Scott decided to take the next step in his career by starting up a boutique HR consulting firm. Despite only being in the start-up phase, Scott grew the firm’s income from nil to $2.4M in just two years.
