Working With Us / Meet The Team
Experienced and enthusiastic, our team is committed to helping our clients plan, control and above all build their businesses.
Melvyn Sadofsky F.C.A.
Managing Director
Born in 1949 I was educated in Hull at Kingston High School. I left school to take up Articles with a small local firm of Chartered Accountants. I completed my Articles and qualified in 1971 and left the practice in April 1972 to set up my own business.
The practice which I established was built up over a number of years to become one of the largest local independent firms eventually with four Partners and over forty employees.
In 2001 I sold my share in the practice to my partners and left to set up MWS Business Management Ltd, a Corporate Finance Practice aimed at Small to Medium sized Enterprises with commitment to support them with provision of regular Management information and commercial expertise.
Since 2001 MWS has grown dramatically and has raised nearly £50m for various local and national businesses. Through team work the company has delivered strong support to clients with turnovers as low £100,000 p.a. but up to £75m p.a.
It is my hope that I can lead the experienced team at MWS to further success and expansion over the next 5/10 years.
In my spare time I follow all sports, with particular interest in cricket at all levels.

Michael Gibbin A.C.C.A.
Senior Portfolio Manager
Having been in the profession for 18 years and qualifying in 2001, I have gained a great deal of knowledge in all aspects of business. When the opportunity arose of moving with Melvyn five years ago to assist in setting up the new practice, the temptation of leaving behind the mundane audit regulations and form filling was too great.
The experience gained in my previous role and the five years being involved in the running of a number of businesses and assisting with key decision making and strategy is something which I can now pass on to new and existing clients.
I am a keen follower of sport and when time allows I travel to Anfield to hopefully watch some quality football. All other sport is watched in front of the “big screen” with my mates and a few beers.

Sean Maloney
Senior Portfolio Manager
With over 18 years of experience, I have occupied almost every position within the Accountancy industry.
After working in practice producing information for the first 13 years an opportunity arose to not just perform statutory duties for clients, but to actually assist them in understanding and improving their business.
My role therefore is not only to review and produce information for clients but is to help assist these clients in making key business decisions, whether it is through the production of business plans, cash flows, Key Performance Indicator Analysis, staff recruitment etc. I believe the key element of the role is the close contact that is maintained with clients which often helps in identifying and implementing financial strategies on a proactive not reactive basis.
I live with my partner, Julie, and have two daughters, Cameron and Erin. I enjoy the odd game of golf and snooker and am a keen follower of local football (Hull City) and local rugby teams (wearing black and white).
