Strategic Growth Advisory

High-level partnership for founders scaling with intention


A calm, consistent space to think strategically, make confident decisions, and structure your business for long-term value. Whether you're facing complexity in operations, growth, leadership, or investment planning, I bring clarity, structure, and senior-level insight to help you move forward.


We work together monthly to tackle challenges, align priorities, and build momentum with regular strategic sessions and a planning cadence designed to support both the business and the founder.

Growth Strategy Sprint

A focused deep dive to unlock clarity and momentum


This is an intensive, high-impact process for founders who need to step back and reset. We’ll spend a full day together defining your growth strategy, sharpening your value proposition, and aligning your business behind what really matters.

Strategy Reset Session

Quick clarity on the challenge that’s keeping you stuck


A focused 2-hour session to help you tackle a specific strategic issue and move forward with confidence. Whether you’re wrestling with fundraising questions, struggling to prioritise, or navigating a board relationship that isn’t working, I bring clear thinking, grounded insight, and practical direction.


You’ll complete a short prep form beforehand to outline the challenge, then we’ll meet online to work through it together. You’ll also receive a short follow-up summary with recommendations and next steps to keep up the momentum.


For founders who want senior-level input, a fresh perspective, and a path through the noise - without committing to ongoing support.

Workshops and Masterclasses

Tailored sessions that spark clarity, confidence, and strategic action


I design and deliver bespoke workshops and masterclasses for founder communities, leadership teams, boards, and ecosystem partners. Whether it's a half-day interactive session or a keynote-style masterclass, each session is crafted to be insight-rich, energising, and grounded in real-world growth challenges.


Topics include leadership, growth strategy, value creation, board dynamics, and funding - all delivered with practical frameworks, lived experience, and a tone that inspires action.


Ideal for accelerators, networks, or teams who want more than theory - and founders who want to feel clearer, braver, and more in control of their next steps.

Board Chair and Non-Executive Director

Strategic board leadership for scaling companies



I bring clarity, challenge, and strategic partnership to the boardroom - helping ambitious businesses build the governance, leadership, and decision-making capacity they need to grow well.


As a Board Chair or Non-Executive Director, I support founders, CEOs and leadership teams with:


  • Strategic decision-making at key growth stages
  • Governance structures that unlock, not constrain
  • Funding, financial oversight and investor relations
  • Team, culture and leadership development
  • Exit preparation and value creation strategy


My approach is calm, commercially focused, and grounded in lived entrepreneurial experience. I act as a sounding board, a strategic guide, and a values-driven partner, ensuring the board is a true growth asset, not just a compliance function.


Ideal for scaling businesses seeking board-level partnership that’s thoughtful, action-oriented and aligned with founder vision.
