Turnaround: the business is in trouble
Cash is tight, a big customer has gone, a key person has walked, or the numbers have turned red.
I come in fast, stay calm, and find the route forward with you: what to stop, what to protect, and who to talk to first.
Hands-on for a fixed period, until the business is stable and I can step back.
You probably know what needs done, but having an outside voice, someone to talk ideas through with, and fresh perspective can help in what can be a high stress situation.

Other ways we can work together
-
One-to-one with the owner. Sometimes that’s one session on one problem: a pricing review, a key hire, a restructure, an acquisition you’re weighing, preparing to raise finance, with written actions to take away. Sometimes it’s ongoing support on customers, margins, the team and getting your time back. Either way, we agree the destination first, then build the route a block at a time.
-
Hands-on in your business towards one specific goal: winning new customers, integrating an acquisition, or covering a key role while you hire. A fixed timescale, a defined finish line, and a handover to whoever takes it on.
-
An outside voice at your board table, monthly or quarterly: challenge on the plan, the numbers and the people. Advisory, not a statutory directorship.
-
An operator’s assessment of owner-managed acquisition targets, alongside your financial and legal due diligence.
