Hiring gaps, turnarounds, exit plans, fund raising, acquisitions and new market expansion don't run on a normal commercial calendar. They need someone who's done it before, sitting inside the business, owning delivery.
Building and coaching the team you'll eventually hire full-time
Pipeline discipline, forecasting, CRM and process: the mechanics behind consistent, forecastable revenue
Resetting stalled or declining sales functions back to growth
Alongside, not instead of, a stable BAU
Building the commercial growth story that stands up in due diligence and investor presentations
Resetting the commercial model fast after acquisition or MBO, without losing revenue momentum
Owning commercial execution against a PE or investor value creation plan
Commercial workstream through due diligence, growth planning, and investor presentations

I assess the commercial position against the moment: exit readiness, post-deal reset, value creation targets, or turnaround.
Days per week agreed, I run point on commercial delivery inside your business.
Some engagements run through to exit or deal close with me embedded throughout; others transition once the strategy and team are in place. The shape follows what the business needs.
Start with a free consultation. No obligation, just a conversation about where you're headed.
