Gain clarity and build resilience.

Partner with an experienced coaching-led consultancy specialising in the finance function.

With over 25 years of strategic and hands on financial leadership experience, I am interested in what makes you, your people & your organisation tick, not just the numbers. This is reflected in how I work:

A collaborative, people focused approach.

A space in which to talk openly and honestly in confidence.

A thoughtful, future facing, action-orientated improvement process.

A rigorous, enthusiastic and committed external resource.

A focus on a more sustainable environment, more cohesive communities and better mental health.

A brief intro:

I am Robin Aitken, founder of Bellevue Partners.

I’ve worked as a Finance Director and Business Consultant for over 25 years. I am particularly drawn to guiding enterprises that have a clear social purpose.

My style is straight-forward, open and supportive. I work with curiosity, some challenge and plenty of consideration to help you gain clarity about what’s important in your situation and how you can move forward to achieve positive changes.

I enjoy what I do and am committed to building the resilience of those with whom I partner.

David Harbord, Managing Director, Portchester Equity Limited

“Robin showed himself to be someone with deep reserves of resilience; someone who cares most about people. A rare beast, a finance guy who is a genuine people person.”

Caroline Underwood OBE, CEO, Philanthropy Company

“Robin’s experienced advice on strategy, design of management information, and wise counsel on managing our finances strategically has been invaluable as we grow our consultancy business.”

Scott Logie, Chief Commercial Officer, Sagacity (formerly Managing Director, Occam DM)

“Robin’s ability to analyse our finances and readiness to support all functions of the organisation were of great value to me and the business in going through our MBO.”

Ian Birrell, Founder of Africa Express & Journalist

“Robin Aitken is the man who kept Africa Express's craziest project on the commercial rails allowing us to achieve world-wide acclaim and attention while keeping a firm grip of our finances.”
