EXPERIENCED business leaders Graham Jones and Kris Aynsley have linked up to open an office in Malvern to cover Worcestershire for the business support specialists Business Doctors.

It is the UK’s fastestgrowing business-support service, providing support and advice to owners and directors of small and medium-sized businesses.

This includes everything from strategies for sales and profit-growth to people engagement, plus help with access to funding and getting a business ready for sale.

Mr Jones is a serial entrepreneur and corporate business leader, who has held leadership positions in businesses large and small, including three he founded himself and four multinationals where he drove expansion and boosted profits.

Ms Aynsley has a complementary business background, with experience in business coaching, sales and marketing, HR and executive search among other disciplines. She has an MBA from the University of Birmingham and has worked in-house for companies including Xerox, as well as working in partnership with companies including Accenture and software house Attachmate.

She said: “No matter what the size or nature of your business, there are proven processes that lead to long-term growth and prosperity.

“What Business Doctors does is work alongside businesses to help them adopt these methods in a way that I have seen be hugely successful elsewhere.”

Business Doctors has 25 offices around the country.

Its experts aim to help business leaders take control of their future and achieve their vision.
