Marlow-based Clarke, who was himself a TAB member, will be responsible for driving the growth of TAB Thames Valley West, which already now works with over 20 firms in the area, by working closely with them to help them achieve their goals.

A chartered accountant, he has worked in large corporations and run innovative startups, including London’s first 100% Electric taxi firm.

TAB board members are owners and leaders of SME businesses who pay a month-by-month investment for business advisory, planning and coaching services.

"I am delighted to be able to expand TAB’s offer across the Thames Valley through partnering with Alistair," said David Abbott, owner of TAB Thames Valley West.

"Alistair was himself a TAB member and the enthusiasm and expertise that he brought to peer board meetings always stood out as exemplary."

Clarke added: "Joining TAB was pivotal in helping me to manage my own businesses better and I am now ready to do the same for others.

"I strongly believe that small to medium sized enterprises have a key role to play in delivering local employment opportunities and creating a thriving community for current and future generations.

"I want my kids and their peers, to have the option of securing good jobs locally, avoiding the need to relocate to big cities or spend significant time and money commuting to work."

TAB board member revenue growth between 2020 and 2021 averaged an impressive 28.4% with 80% reporting turnover had increased since joining TAB.

TAB Thames Valley West will be hosting free Taste of TAB events throughout November. For further information about the events or joining TAB, click HERE.
