About

I build, scale and strengthen businesses at the intersection of capital, strategy, technology and purpose. I have spent more than 30 years helping established institutions create new capability and helping entrepreneurial businesses turn a good idea into a durable commercial proposition. I am not a keep-the-machine-ticking-over executive. I am at my best at the front end of growth: spotting the opportunity, shaping the offer, building conviction with clients, partners and investors, and then bringing the leadership, rhythm and discipline required to deliver. My experience spans wealth and investment management, venture building, impact investing, technology-enabled platforms, philanthropy and founder-led growth businesses. Today I work with founders, boards, family-owned businesses and investment partners on: • Venture strategy, growth and commercial proposition • Capital strategy, investor readiness and shareholder matters • Acquisitions, transactions, partnerships and corporate development • Governance, independent director and trustee roles • Impact investment, sustainability and purpose-led business building • Turning complexity into a clearer, more investable and executable plan I bring the perspective of an operator, investor, founder and adviser, commercially pragmatic, globally connected and comfortable working across South Africa, the UK, Europe and beyond. I am particularly drawn to businesses and leaders building something worthwhile: businesses with ambition, real-world relevance and the potential to create enduring value for shareholders, customers and society.
