Why Perle?
We’re called Perle after the French word for pearl. Pearls are the only gemstone created within a living creature. They form when an irritant works its way into an oyster shell or mollusc. As a defence mechanism a fluid is used to coat the intruder and the layers of this fluid (nacre) are deposited around the irritant until a lustrous pearl is formed.
Perle helps deliver great results by asking challenging questions and building Business Fitness – a resilient strategic and operational framework for your early stage business.
The Perle Story
Professionally Qualified Accountant and Treasurer, Andrew Tapson (ACA, AMCT) established Perle in early 2019 after an international corporate career of some 30 years that took in roles and sectors as varied as they were interesting.
As so often is the case, one particular experience was instrumental in determining the thinking that led to him establishing Perle. As Chief Executive Officer at ING Lease UK Ltd, Andrew was tasked with leading the project to deliver the closure of the £3bn UK asset finance arm. This was successfully achieved in 2016, £10m under budget, with minimal bad debt, complaints and discounts.
From the start, Andrew recognised that the most important aspect of building towards a successful outcome lay in how management looked after not just the finances but its people, those entrusted with taking care of ING’s customers. Getting to know them, incentivising them and developing re-training programmes that subsequently saw many fulfil lifelong ambitions, contributed not only to the smooth running of the project, but also drove home to him how vital it is to ensure all elements of a business work together in harmony.
Today, relationship-building and creating an environment of trust and open communication is central to how Perle works with you. At any one time, we work with a small number of businesses across a range of complementary sectors. Find out how you could benefit from our world-class expertise and commercial know-how.
