Episode 3: Meet the ‘Mr Money’ of Deals
Description
Barry Nightingale is the straight-talking Northerner with a reputation for getting deals done.
During a stellar career he’s worked with some of the best known names in business – including webuyanycar founders Noel and Darren McKee; BetFred’s billionaire founder Fred Done; and easyJet founder Sir Stelios Haji-Ioannou.
Nightingale has specialised in financing and has a track record of being involved in some of the country’s biggest deals.
In 2011 he was the flat cap-wearing FD of BetFred when he oversaw the £265m deal to buy the Tote, which saw him crowned Dealmaker of the Year.
In this episode of The Dealmaker Uncut Podcast, Nightingale discusses the Tote deal and some of the other highest profile deals of his career.
Nightingale explains why cashflow is king in business and recalls why a tray of cream cakes were crucial in one deal he oversaw.
