Head of Finance and Operations

Liz Penston

As co-founder of Bluesky more than 25 years ago, Liz has been at the centre of both the strategic and operational success of the company.

Today, Liz is responsible for the company’s finances, financial strategy, and overall financial health. She’s also involved in resource allocation, risk management, and operational efficiency.

Selling Bluesky as a thriving and successful business to director and Chartered financial planner Rob Starling was the proudest moment of Liz’s career.

Three things Liz loves about her job include driving financial and operational success, watching the business grow, and problem-solving and looking for innovative solutions.

The types of people Liz most enjoys working with are dynamic and enthusiastic, open to change, and looking to progress their own careers.

Outside of work, Liz enjoys spending time with her family and travelling. She’s hoping to spend more time doing both as she heads towards retirement.

In her spare time, Liz is a hockey umpire, and has taken up bell-ringing again after a 40-year gap. If there’s time, she also enjoys (fair weather) gardening.
