Philip’s early career was spent in banking then in the mid 1990s he realised a long held ambition to leave his role in the City to study. Four years later he graduated from Coventry University with a First Class BA (Hons) in Business Administration, majoring in Finance and Accounting. After a time working in the Accounts Department of the University he moved to The Society of Homeopaths where he worked for six years as Finance Manager. In November 2007 Philip became Irving & Irving Associates’ Office Manager. He organises and co-ordinates all our financial and administrative activities, including business policy and process, management of company finances, diary and meeting management and resource allocation. As Philip says, he is likely to be the recipient of any correspondence sent to the Irving & Irving office and, whether you like it or not, you’re likely to come into contact with him at some point! .
