Working with ambitious businesses that want to move faster, protect margin, and grow revenue.
I’ve spent more than 20 years building, scaling and transforming digital technology businesses. I began my career in Sales & Business Development at industry-defining pioneers in digital advertising — ValueClick and DoubleClick — where I learned first-hand how technology when adopted at scale can reshape entire markets.
I took the entrepreneurial leap and founded Vidify in 2009, spending seven years across every aspect of building a scaled video production business — from investment and team hiring, to product development, sales, marketing and strategic partnerships. Those lessons shaped the next phase of my career, moving into fractional growth and technology leadership roles across early stage B2B SaaS startups and scaleups.
More recently I’ve operated in the global marketing services sector, where I’ve led digital transformation and technology strategy for global organisations including Tag Worldwide, ADM Indicia and Paragon Global Brands. At Paragon I oversaw a successful multi million pound digital transformation programme, including an ERP migration, data platform implementation and an overhaul of the entire productivity tech stack.
Today, I combine experience as a founder, operator and transformation leader to provide fractional services, helping ambitious businesses accelerate growth, scale effectively and navigate change with confidence.

Experience & Expertise
Digital transformation failures tend to reside in flawed operating models, not poor quality technology. Fix the structure, modernise where appropriate, unify the data and the business value starts to unlock.

Leadership & Change Management
Entrepreneurship
Built from zero
Most operators have managed businesses, very few have built one from scratch. That founder lens changes how you see risk, opportunity, and execution speed.
Scaled Global Video Production Service
White-label custom on-site video service for SMEs, partnered with global business directories. Bootstrapped to UK market leadership, managing 50+ remote filmmakers and 250+ productions a month. Full P&L ownership.
Commercialised Open-Source AI SaaS
Hired to commercialise an AI transcription platform. Built sales, marketing and CS teams — 8,000+ customers, £1.5M ARR in 12 months. Led North American expansion strategy. Secured oversubscribed £2.5M Pre-Series A.
Strategic Change Drivers
Most structural business problems aren’t commercial, they’re informational. Surface the data and you can intervene earlier, decide faster, and execute more consistently.
Digital Literacy & Mindset
Close the gap between digital capability and employee readiness — building confidence, removing friction, and tying adoption to visible outcomes.
Data Architecture & Platform
Define a data blueprint and build a single source of truth with the right access guardrails — operational margin, revenue and cost, client analytics, and compliance data, all in one governed place.
Legacy Modernisation
Integrate legacy ERPs and tools via APIs and automation while preserving workflows. Retire systems where necessary — freeing budget, reducing complexity, and accelerating delivery.
Advanced Analytics & AI
Accelerate productivity with AI-native SaaS across every function, while building ML models against key transactional data to surface margin leakage and client profitability at scale.
Move Upstream
Extend beyond operational efficiency into strategic value creation — building new capabilities, productising expertise, and repositioning the business as a tech led innovation partner.
From AI tools to AI systems
Most companies buy AI tools and wonder why nothing changes. The challenge is in redesigning and connecting the work so that it seamlessly flows across the business.
AI as a tool
Individual people, individual tasks, one prompt at a time.
The starting point for most businesses — useful, but the gains stay personal and unevenly distributed. Any impact here won’t show up in the P&L.
AI as a teammate
A specialist with a defined role, not a general-purpose Q&A chatbot.
Purpose-built assistants that own a slice of real work — briefed, guided and trusted like a team member. This is where AI starts doing the job rather than helping with it.
AI as a system
Teammates chained together so work runs end-to-end.
Connected AI integrated workflows that move seamlessly from trigger to outcome. This phase changes your operating model — and therefore requires expert guidance.
