How I can help

Whether you need senior direction, a clear-eyed diagnosis, or someone to step in and get things moving — I flex to what you actually need right now.

Best when · Direction is needed

Fractional Leadership

Senior data, insight and AI leadership one to three days a week — strategy, stakeholder alignment and operating rhythm, without the full-time hire.

Best when · Things feel stuck or unclear

Consulting

Diagnosis first, always. I find what's really going on, cut through the noise, and define the most sensible path forward — grounded in commercial reality, not theory.

Contract Delivery

Step in fast and get moving. Analytics, data engineering, AI-enabled workflows, or bridging technical and commercial teams — experienced delivery from day one.

How I work

Pragmatic, low-fluff and focused on momentum. I'm most useful when the challenge is commercially important and slightly messy.

Understand the real problem

Look past symptoms. Clarify the decision points and focus on what genuinely affects performance.

Fix the foundations

Improve upstream data, definitions and operating discipline — not just the outputs built on top of them.

Build what matters

Reporting, models and workflows that are useful in practice — not just impressive in a slide deck.

Enable better decisions

Make the work usable by everyone who needs it — from the boardroom to delivery teams on the ground.

Selected experience

Across consulting, in-house leadership and contract delivery — often where data, technology, insight and commercial priorities need to come together fast.

Marketing, performance & growth

Deep experience in marketing analytics, commercial decision support and performance measurement — including econometric-style work, customer and channel insight, and the practical realities of growth-focused organisations.
