Damion Taylor
Summary
I joined Sheffield Business School in 2010, after a 12 year career in industry. I graduated from Sheffield Hallam University in 1998 with a BA (Hons) in Financial Services after which I joined the Royal Mail graduate finance scheme. Having worked for Royal Mail and its subsidiaries for 12 years, latterly as Head of Finance for the Post Office, I left to rejoin the University as a member of the academic team.
I am both course leader and recruitment leader for finance courses at undergraduate level.
I teach a range of modules in the financial management subject area at undergraduate, masters and professional levels.
I am a member of The Chartered Institute of Management Accountants and I also work closely with the Chartered Insurance Institute and the Chartered Institute of Securities and Investments.
In addition to my teaching specialisms I am interested in short term currency, equity and commodity trading. I study technical analysis and enjoy designing and testing new strategies
