Plan & Build Measurably Better Digital Products

Coaching and Mentoring for Product Teams and Leaders

I help you develop product vision and strategy, build and manage teams, prioritise the customer and their needs and set KPIs in a complex market or organisation. All with a focus on shipping great products users love.

I help you to

  • Build the right things
  • In the right order
  • For the right reasons

I have 15 years of experience working with large organisations like eBay, Disney or Trainline as well as start-ups and high-growth, post series A scale-ups.

Getting Started

Working with me is straight forward.

  1. Get in touch and we can chat over what you need and how I can help
  2. I’ll send you details on how it works and some details around the costs
  3. We can kick off working together either with a workshop (I have two) or a full review of your product, team or process, or just a big download of all the challenges you are facing
  4. We get on with it, together we decide what to do and I can even roll my sleeves up and help you do it
