James Bainbridge

James Bainbridge brings big-picture strategies and pragmatic approaches to improving the business with his keen analysis. He joined Marco as a Controller and quickly moved up the ranks to Vice President of Finance and then to his current role as Chief Financial Officer.

As CFO, James oversees all financial aspects of the company, including financial planning and analysis, financial operations, accounting and billing.

Prior to joining Marco, James gained significant financial experience working for Milk Specialties Global and PricewaterhouseCoopers, the second largest professional services network in the world and one of the Big Four accounting firms.

What James likes most about Marco are the opportunities and challenges that the company’s growth brings. He enjoys the fast-paced environment and that Marco is always adapting to changes in the market.

If James had a superpower, it would be the ability to slow down time. As a practical person, he definitely sees how this would benefit him at work and at home, with his family. James likes music and is good at quickly identifying song lyrics, frequently challenging people to name songs on the radio. So, if given the chance, he would totally compete on a “Beat Shazam” game show.

When he’s not crunching numbers, James enjoys golfing, traveling and spending time with his wife and two kids.
