Who it's for

You have an ops team.
You need sharper judgment.

This isn't for businesses that are operationally broken. It's for founders and CEOs who have good operators in place but face a cluster of high-stakes decisions and want someone who has run operations at scale to help think them through and pressure-test the answers.

Best fit

Businesses with an existing operations or production lead
Post-investment businesses navigating rapid growth
Founders facing org design or senior hiring decisions
Agencies or studios approaching a significant inflection point
CEOs who want an experienced operator as a sounding board

Probably not

Businesses with no operational infrastructure yet
Looking for full-time executive support
Need hands-on day-to-day operational management

What advisory covers

The decisions that are too important to get wrong.

Org design: how to structure a growing team, what roles to hire next, and what reporting lines to change
Senior hiring: defining the brief, evaluating candidates, and structuring onboarding for operations and production leads
System and process rebuilds: diagnosing what to fix and sequencing the work
Post-investment or post-acquisition integration: how to absorb growth without losing the culture and output quality that got you here
Strategic operational decisions the founder needs a second set of eyes on before committing

"He doesn't just advise. He builds systems that survive him. We still run the operating cadence he set up two years later. Best ROI of any consultant I've hired."

— James M., CEO · Creative agency, London
