Operations & Systems for Purpose-Led Organisations
Helping to close the gap between could be and is.
I work with organisations at key moments, at the points where there is a gap between where they are right now and where they'd like to be. I'm a systems and processes guy at heart, I love to figure out how things work and how they could be improved*.With a background in operational leadership with charities, social enterprises and limited companies over the last 20 years I've helped organisations get a clearer picture of where they're at and how they actually operate right now, understand what is causing friction or threatening growth and put firm foundations in place to build towards their goals.In practice that looks like combining operational thinking, robust systems and clear design to turn good ideas into things that actually work and stand the test of time.
*a trait I've had since I was a kid and thought was pretty endearing right up until I had a kid of my own who works in exactly the same way. Sorry Mum and Dad...
Working with not-for-profit groups
nfpSpark is a project I've wanted to start for a long time, providing not-for-profit groups with access to affordable, accessible technology built by someone who understand the needs of the sector.
Thanks for getting in touch.
