Projects that deliver real impact.
We do not write reports that sit on shelves. We embed, we deliver, and we leave businesses stronger than we found them. Here is a selection of the work we have done for clients across HR transformation, financial strategy, leadership development and organisational change.
Selected projects across our practice areas
Restructuring and Change Management
A PE-backed manufacturing business with 180 employees needed a full organisational restructure following a leveraged buyout. We designed the new operating model, managed the consultation process, rebuilt the leadership team, and delivered the transition within 90 days, reducing overhead by 15% while preserving critical capability.
Services used: Organisation Design, Retained HR, Compliance
Financial Strategy and Governance
A scaling technology business with £12M revenue needed financial leadership for a Series A raise but could not justify a full-time CFO. Our fractional CFO built the financial model, prepared the data room, managed investor due diligence, and secured £8M in funding. We then embedded for 12 months to build the finance function and hand over to a permanent hire.
Services used: Fractional CFO, Finance Services
Leadership Programme Design
A professional services firm of 250 staff needed to build leadership capability across three tiers: first-line managers, mid-level leaders and senior partners. We designed and delivered a 12-month accredited programme (ILM Level 5) with cohort-based workshops, action learning projects, 360-degree feedback and one-to-one coaching. 94% completion rate with measurable behaviour change.
Services used: Leadership Development, Talent Management
Employment Law Compliance Overhaul
A fast-growing retail business with 90 employees discovered during a funding round that their employment contracts, policies and Right to Work processes had significant gaps. We conducted a two-week compliance health check, rebuilt all 90 contracts, created a new employee handbook, corrected the Right to Work process, and trained managers on the new framework. The funding round completed successfully.
Services used: Employment Law Compliance, Retained HR
Post-Acquisition Cultural Integration
Following the acquisition of a competitor, a 200-person logistics business faced significant cultural friction between the two organisations. We ran culture diagnostics across both entities, designed a values framework and behavioural standards, delivered a six-month leadership programme for the combined management team, and built an integration roadmap that the internal team could sustain.
Services used: Leadership Development, Organisation Design
HR Function Build for Scaling SME
A 45-person engineering consultancy had no HR function at all. The owners were managing HR issues alongside their day jobs, and it was becoming a bottleneck. We embedded as their retained HR partner, implemented a HRIS (BambooHR), created all policies and contracts from scratch, built a performance management framework, and trained the management team on core HR practices. After 18 months, the business had grown to 70 staff with a scalable HR infrastructure.
