I’m Trevor Parker, an active Chair, NED, and Interim CEO. I’ve restored 15% margin in 90 days at a £50m PE-backed firm, rebuilt trust at three portfolio companies without leadership churn, and helped stabilise businesses facing covenant stress, operational inefficiencies, and board misalignment.
I work with senior management teams to multiply their strategic instinct and operational effectiveness by translating what they know needs to happen into plans their teams can actually execute.
Three Ways I Work
CEOs and Managing Directors – When you know something’s not right and you need that nudge. I help you translate strategic instinct into executable plans through structured workshops that explore options, test assumptions, and develop scenarios your team can act on with confidence.
Management Teams – When your team knows what needs to happen but can’t get traction. I work with you collectively to multiply your strategic instinct and operational effectiveness by translating what you know into plans you can execute together.
Portfolio Managers – When your investments need an operational multiplier. I work with your management teams to multiply their strategic instinct and operational effectiveness by translating what they know needs to happen into plans they can actually execute.
A Strategic Advisor to UK Business Leaders
I’ve grown a business from £5M to £150M through acquisition and a “buy and build” strategy over five years. I’ve rescued a failing business under threat of banking withdrawal and insolvency, turning it around, repaying all debt, and exiting profitably.
