GROWTH

Commercial Advisor | Fractional Commercial Leader | Non-Executive Director

B2B commercial growth,
board-level judgement
and practical AI support.

I work with founders, CEOs, boards and investors across startup and scale-up businesses that need stronger commercial structure, sharper revenue thinking and more practical use of AI.

My background combines founder experience, two seven-figure exits, scaling a business from £500,000 to more than £18 million turnover, leading teams of 60+ people, and applying AI to real commercial workflows.

The problem

Most growth problems are not caused by a lack of ideas.

They are usually caused by weak commercial structure, unclear priorities, poor sales discipline, loose accountability, founder dependency, or decisions being made without enough evidence.

For startup and scale-up boards, this creates a real problem. Growth becomes reactive. Sales and marketing drift apart. AI gets discussed but not properly applied. The founder remains too central. The business keeps moving, but not always in the right direction.

I help leadership teams see the commercial reality clearly, challenge weak assumptions, and build the structure needed for more predictable growth.
