01
Operating model & governance
Structures, roles, decision-making and the rhythms that keep the business running.
Fractional COO
Hands-on operational leadership for organisations who want to scale and expand.
I step in as your fractional COO to design, fix and scale the operational backbone of your organisation, embedded in your team for as long as you need me.
When it fits
- You are scaling fast and your structures, processes and tools are not keeping up
- The founder or CEO is still carrying operations alongside everything else
- You are preparing for funding and need investor-ready operations, governance and reporting
- You are expanding internationally and need to set up multi-region operations
- You are between COOs, restructuring, or integrating teams after a merger
- You need senior operational experience or want to improve your operational excellence
