I help businesses execute change, stabilise operations, and deliver measurable improvements. My work often includes reviewing operations, supporting leadership teams, providing interim management, and helping unlock value in complex or pressured situations.

Both. Some clients need an interim CEO, CRO or COO to stabilise the business or deliver a critical phase of change. Others value us as an operational sounding board — a trusted advisor who brings clarity, perspective, and execution support when it’s most needed.

Both. I am bought in either by funders seeking to strengthen their portfolio or by management teams who want practical, hands-on support to move things forward. My role is to support the success of the business and work collaboratively with all stakeholders.

I work with:

• Private equity firms seeking value creation, stabilisation, or change management support
• Specialist lenders and banks working with underperforming or transitioning businesses
• Portfolio company CEOs and COOs in need of experienced operational input
• Founders or leadership teams facing periods of change, uncertainty, or accelerated growth
• Boards seeking independent operational advice or interim leadership to support strategic delivery

I’m based in the UK and work predominantly with UK-based or UK-invested businesses, though many of our clients operate internationally. I understand the nuances of working across borders but keep our focus on practical execution and leadership impact.

No — my expertise is sector-agnostic. That said, I am most effective in people-driven organisations, where success is determined by team cohesion, clarity of execution, and operational alignment.

I’m not a slide-builder. I embed, engage, and execute. My approach is hands-on and outcome-focused — more sleeves rolled up than arms folded. Clients value my ability to quickly build trust, challenge with good humour, and deliver real results without creating disruption.

I’m built for pace. In many cases, I can begin with a short discovery phase or initial review within days. From there, we agree a sensible level of engagement depending on the business needs — whether light-touch support or embedded operational leadership.

My work varies depending on the business need, but typical areas include:

• Operational reviews to assess performance, identify gaps, and shape improvement plans
• Change execution support — from planning to implementation
• Contingency planning and decision-making frameworks during uncertainty
• Board-level coaching and operational advisory to strengthen leadership confidence
• Interim leadership to fill a gap, manage through change, or stabilise performance
• Cross-functional team alignment to ensure strategy translates into action

Yes. Some clients bring us in for a specific event — a restructure, post-deal integration, or urgent performance issue. Others retain us over time as an embedded operational advisor or interim leader. We shape our involvement based on what’s right for the business.
