John Dowdall

Chartered Management Accountant

Transforming Figures Into Findings

As a child, John enjoyed technical drawing and once considered becoming an architect. Life led him into financial services, but working for SPACE Architects allows him to blend his early passion with his professional skills. John prepares management accounts for six companies within the Space Group, including SPACE Architects, and is closely involved in budgeting, collaborating with auditors, and taking on a variety of projects.

Originally from Hertfordshire, John moved to the North East after meeting his wife, turning it into his new home, though his loyalty to Watford FC remains strong. As a father of three lively school-aged children, his days are rarely quiet. When time allows, John enjoys exploring new places, from a year living in Australia during his twenties to a summer spent working in the U.S.

John is an occasional skier and runner, having completed the Great North Run. He has also served as Treasurer of a local Rotary club, reflecting his ongoing commitment to his community, which translates into his work role.
