10 → 100 staff in 10 weeks

I built delivery ops from scratch for hyper-growth fintech. Refined tools & processes, and coached leads to manage at speed.

4 weeks intense high impact Ops reset

I mapped workflows, improved tooling (Wrike/ Hubspot), and rolled out more efficient ways of working.

3 months deep operational change

Analysed structure & process issues, introduced PM tooling (Asana), defined processes, roles, pricing model and wiki.

Is This Your Company?

You’re leading a growing tech business through high-stakes change. Maybe it’s a restructure, an acquisition, a major tool rollout, or just the chaos of scaling fast. If you’re navigating one of these - I can help:

High-Change

Constant firefighting after product pivots, leadership shake-ups, or strategic shifts

Teams are drained; delivery is off-track - and no one has time step back and fix it

New tools or ways of working (Agile, OKRs, PM/Sales systems) were introduced - but nothing sticks

Rapid Scaling

Delivery is stalling, even as headcount goes up. Tools and processes aren't growing with you.

Managers are stretched thin or or struggling to shift from ‘doing’ to leading

Roles, ownership, and priorities are getting fuzzy - and things keep slipping through the cracks

Merging, Restructuring, or Acquisition

Leadership isn’t aligned, and teams are pulling in different directions

Culture is clashing, trust is low, and key people are thinking about leaving

Processes, tools, and ownership are all in flux — and no one’s sure who’s driving what

When change strains your people, slows your delivery, or shakes things up, I fix it - fast.

  • Aligning leadership priorities and rebuilding clarity around ownership

  • Resetting delivery workflows, role definitions, and communication flows

Leadership Coaching

  • Supporting founders, COOs, or senior execs through periods of change

  • Helping new or stretched managers lead with more clarity, presence, and resilience

  • Coaching leadership teams to rebuild trust, focus, and collaboration
