When Leadership Pressure Mounts, Appoint Experience – Not Potential
Interim CEO support trusted by Private Equity and Lenders to deliver clarity, control, and progress.
Brought in when performance is drifting, time is short, or the CEO seat is vacant, I work directly with funders and leadership teams to stabilise operations and create forward momentum.
Is This You?
The CEO has stepped aside and the board needs a steady hand
Pressure is mounting from investors and performance has dipped
There’s a funding event or sale on the horizon, but confidence in delivery is slipping
You’re running out of time to wait for a permanent fix
You need someone who’s already navigated this type of situation, not someone learning on the job.
What I Do
I step into the CEO seat to:
Stabilise the team and protect value
Rebuild operational rhythm and restore grip
Realign execution with investor and board priorities
Drive decision-making from inside the business, not from the sidelines
This isn’t about reports and frameworks. It’s about doing the job.
Who You’ll Be Working With
You’re not dealing with a firm or a consultancy. You’re dealing with me.
I’m Trevor Parker, a board-level operator who’s led businesses through turnaround, growth, sale, and transition. I’ve worked with PE and lender-backed companies, sat in the chair myself, and dealt with the reality of fixing what’s broken when there’s no room for missteps.
“Trevor doesn’t need to be convinced of the problem. He’s already three steps into solving it.”
