From Chairman and CEO to CRO, I Specialise in Interim Management for Private Equity and Venture Capital backed firms. Sometimes it’s to plug short-term skills gaps. More often, it’s to support management teams in implementing a Value Creation Plan.
Chairman, Interim and Operational Advisor to Private Equity and Venture Capital backed firms.
I support Management Teams by adding additional “hands-on” operational experience, leading strategic projects, complex situations or challenging trading periods; I deliver direct active support to navigate periods of uncertainty.
”“The goal is not to sail the boat, but rather to help the boat sail herself”.

Pre Deal
Without a clear Value Creation Plan, I support management to create a “real-world” operationally oriented plan.
I get to know management from an Operational Perspective, where they might need support, and how we might better enable them.
I will identify Key People, whether they are vulnerable, and the succession plan.
Post Deal
I will implement robust management practices which establish an identifiable operational rhythm.
I will add additional “bandwidth” to a management team under pressure and stabilise business during periods of uncertainty.
I will lead any change programmes required to deliver results before longer-term management takes up posts.
