Consultancy services built on real-world experience
Every engagement is practical, direct and focused on results. We don’t write lengthy reports and disappear — we get in the room and help you fix the problem.
01 — Business Development
Ideal for growth-focused SMEs
Most businesses have a good service. What they lack is the right relationships and the credibility to get in front of the people who can actually say yes. That is where we come in.
With 30 years of senior-level relationships across security, facilities management, events, property, finance and public sector — we open doors that others cannot. We represent your business at the highest level, build the pipeline you need and help you convert opportunities into contracts.
We understand what decision makers want to hear, because we have sat on both sides of the table. Whether you need to win corporate clients, break into the public sector or grow your presence in the West Midlands and beyond — we have the network and the credibility to make it happen.
What this includes
- Mapping your target market and identifying the right decision makers
- Leveraging our network to secure introductions and meetings
- Representing your business at senior level meetings and pitches
- Building and managing a structured new business pipeline
- Advising on proposal and tender responses
- Success fee structure available alongside retainer
02 — Operational Review & Improvement
Ideal for organisations with complex operational challenges
Many organisations know something is not working. Costs are too high. Teams are not communicating. Suppliers are underperforming. Systems are a mess. But because everyone is busy running the business day to day, nobody stops to fix the underlying problems.
We come in from the outside, look at your operations with fresh eyes and identify exactly what is holding you back. Then we work with you to fix it — practically and at pace. No 200-page reports. No recommendations that gather dust. Just clear thinking and decisive action.
Having built and run businesses from zero across multiple sectors and countries, we understand operations at every level — from the boardroom to the shop floor.
What this includes
- Full operational audit and diagnostic review
- Cost reduction and procurement analysis
- Management accounts and financial visibility
- Systems, processes and workflow improvement
- Supplier and contractor management review
- Ongoing interim management if required
03 — Risk, Safety & Compliance
Ideal for events, venues and property owners
Safety and compliance are not tick-box exercises. Done properly, they protect your people, your reputation and your business. Done poorly, the consequences can be severe.
Our founder is NEBOSH qualified and spent four years as Spectator Safety Consultant and Safety Officer at the Yas Marina Formula One Grand Prix Circuit — one of the most complex and high-profile safety environments in world sport. He also served as Head of Security at the Dubai Rugby 7s International and Consultant for the Race to Dubai on the European Tour.
That experience translates directly into practical, credible safety and risk consultancy for UK businesses, venues, events and property owners.
What this includes
- Health & safety audits and risk assessments
- Security risk assessments and recommendations
- Event safety planning and management
- Venue and site safety reviews
- Health & safety policy creation and review
- Contractor and supplier compliance checks
- Staff safety training and awareness
- Emergency planning and business continuity
04 — Strategic Advisory
Ideal for SME owners and leadership teams
Running a growing business can be lonely. You need someone who has genuinely been there — who has made the hard decisions, managed complex stakeholders, built businesses from nothing and navigated serious challenges — to sit alongside you and help you think clearly.
As a strategic adviser, we work closely with business owners and senior leadership teams as a trusted sounding board. We bring an independent, experienced perspective to your most important decisions — from growth strategy and market entry to cost management, organisational change and crisis management.
With board-level experience across a $517 million business, public sector governance as an elected councillor, and hands-on experience building companies from zero across multiple sectors, we bring a genuinely broad perspective.
What this includes
- Regular strategic advisory sessions
- Growth planning and market entry strategy
- Business model review and improvement
- Cost reduction and margin improvement
- Stakeholder and investor communications
- Organisational structure and team planning
- Crisis management and difficult decision support
- Access to our wider network of specialists
What makes us different
We have actually done it
Not career consultants. We have built businesses from zero, led organisations with 24,000 people and delivered under the most high-pressure conditions on earth. That experience is what you are buying.
We get in the room
We solve problems face to face, not by producing reports and sending emails between departments. Our approach is direct, practical and focused on getting things done.
We are selective
We work with a small number of clients at any one time. That means every engagement gets our full attention — not a junior team member who has never run a business.
