Automation. AI. Strategy.

Growing businesses get harder to run.
Usually, it's a systems, process and data problem.

I help UK SMEs work out where the friction is coming from, what needs to change, and how to make it happen.

In most growing businesses, the problems don't show up where they start. Finance ends up fixing data that doesn't flow properly. Operations build workarounds. Spreadsheets creep in to hold things together. The result is a business that still functions, but gets heavier, slower and more expensive as it grows.

I've previously led IT for a £40M+ business, delivering ERP transformation, cloud migration and automation across the operation. I now work with SMEs to bring that same level of thinking and capability, without the overhead of a full-time technology lead.
