Simon is the Founder and CEO of Migration Manager.

After completing his law degree (LLB Hons) in the UK, Simon went on to qualify as an accountant and worked in business recovery and restructure for a Big 4 professional services firm. Simon is also a self-taught programmer, and throughout his accounting career put his coding skills to good use in creating solutions for complex corporate solvency analysis and task automation.

Simon moved to Australia in 2001 and was granted permanent residence soon after. Having worked alongside a firm of Australian immigration lawyers, Simon saw firsthand the challenges facing immigration law professionals and seized the opportunity to create a solution that would assist them.

Away from work, Simon enjoys spending time with his wife and children. He also trains Jiu Jitsu and swears by its benefits for both physical and mental wellbeing.
