Business Growth Advisor | C-Suite Operator | Serial Entrepreneur
I work with founders, business owners, and leadership teams to turn ambition into structured, scalable growth.
With over 40 years of cross-industry experience, I operate at the intersection of strategy, execution, and commercial performance helping businesses unlock opportunity, solve complex challenges, and deliver measurable results.
My career spans retail, distribution, fashion, music, telecoms, financial services, software, licensing, logistics, eCommerce, manufacturing, real estate, media, marketing, food & beverage, entertainment, and professional services. This breadth allows me to quickly diagnose what’s really happening inside a business not just what’s visible on the surface.
WHAT I DO
Most businesses don’t lack ideas or effort they lack clarity, structure, and alignment.
I work with organisations to:
-
Identify where growth and innovation is being constrained or diluted
-
Clarify commercial direction and strategic priorities
-
Align operations, marketing, sales, and finance around outcomes
-
Design practical, executable strategies that drive revenue and scalability
-
Support leadership through key decisions, transitions, and growth phases
This is hands-on, outcome-led advisory not theory.
HOW I WORK
I combine C-suite experience with an entrepreneurial mindset.
As a serial founder and executive, I understand both sides of the table. The pressure of building, scaling, and exiting businesses, and the discipline required to deliver consistent results.
My approach is:
-
Strategic but practically grounded in real-world execution
-
Commercially focused, every decision tied to measurable impact
-
Solution led cutting through complexity to what actually works
-
Adaptive, effective across both established businesses and high growth environments
I don’t just advise, I help shape decisions, drive momentum, and ensure things get done.
WHERE I ADD VALUE
Typically engaged when:
-
Growth has plateaued or become inconsistent
-
There is clear opportunity, but no structured path forward
-
The business is scaling and needs stronger strategic alignment
-
Leadership requires clarity at critical decision points
-
Founders want to move from reactive to intentional growth
-
Work with start-up founders to build solid commercial foundations from the outset ensuring their business is structured to achieve key milestones and scale effectively
TRACK RECORD
-

-

RELATIONSHIP TO DELIVER AND EXECUTE
My work operates at the strategic level, defining how the business should grow not just what channels to use, but how the entire commercial engine aligns to capture, convert, and scale opportunity.
Where specialist execution is required, I work alongside a long standing trusted network of partners across banking, investment, debt structuring, mergers/acquisitions, accountancy, tax advisory, legal, marketing and AI solutions/ development, ensuring the right expertise is applied at the right time. I also bring extensive experience in navigating financial situations, including HMRC liabilities and structured resolutions.
The distinction is clear:
-
My role is to define direction, structure, and commercial priorities
-
Execution partners deliver within that framework if needed
Where appropriate, both can work in parallel but they remain distinct in scope, responsibility, and engagement.
BEYOND
I am also an author in financial security and an active business mentor, supporting the next generation of founders and leaders.
