say it louder.
then make it inevitable.
I run complicated things.
Most programmes don’t fail because of ambition.They fail because:
– Ownership is blurry
– Governance is performative
– Funding isn’t aligned to delivery
– Everyone is “busy” but nothing moves
I don’t do theatre.
I build the spine that holds the work up.
200+
annual initiatives.
Enterprise portfolios.
Cross-sector partnerships.
I look for:
– Where decisions are actually made
– Where risk is being politely ignored
– Where momentum is bleeding out
– Where accountability has gone soft
Then I fix it.​ Comfortable in rooms where stakes are real.

alignment is architecture.
​
I work with leaders whose ideas are strong but whose execution needs structural precision.
​
Sometimes that means running a programme end-to-end. Sometimes it means structuring the partnerships that fund it, protect it, and scale it. Sometimes it means building the operational spine behind executive thinking so it holds under scrutiny.
​
I work with serious work.
If it has to survive funding cycles, political pressure, public reporting, enterprise oversight, or board-level review, I’m interested.

– Senior programme and portfolio leadership
– Strategic partnerships, funding architecture, and cross-sector alignment
​
– Thought leadership support for founders and executives operating in complex, high-impact environments​
