When Finance, HR, Operations and Data are pulling in different directions, I help Senior Leaders see the connections that unlock progress
Independent Transformation Director working with CFOs, CHROs and senior leadership teams to bring clarity to complex, cross-functional change. Learn MoreServicesTransformation Skills
Your transformation delivered the technology, but the reporting still doesn’t reconcile and adoption has been painful
Spreadsheets to Systems
You’ve outgrown your spreadsheets and someone’s said “we need a system”, but nobody’s done the work of understanding how data actually flows through the business.
Data Disconnect
Finance, HR and operations are each running their own data, and nobody’s asking whether the definitions actually match across the business
Wrong Conversations
Your leadership team is spending forty minutes debating a decimal point in a headcount report while the strategic decision doesn’t get ten.
Forecast Gaps
The forecast is being built without the workforce assumptions that underpin it, and the CFO is pulling the picture together from five incomplete sources.
Misaligned Plans
The programme is six months in and you’ve realised the people plan and the technology plan were built on completely different assumptions.
How I work
I work alongside CFOs, CHROs and senior leadership teams as an independent transformation director and business advisor. My focus is the space between functions, where finance meets HR, where operations meets commercial, where data connects to decisions. Most organisations have amazing people running each of these areas. What can be missing is someone whose job it is to see how they all connect, and where the disconnection is costing them time, money and confidence in their numbers.”
Clarity Across Functions
I connect the dots between finance, HR, operations and commercial so that decisions are based on one version of the truth, not five competing ones.
Independent Challenge
Whether embedded in a programme or working in an advisory capacity, I bring 20 years of experience as a critical friend, asking the questions that don’t get asked when everyone is too close to the problem or too deep in their own function.
Delivery that lands
The value isn’t in the plan, it’s in what happens when the plan meets reality. I work with your people through delivery, making sure what’s implemented reflects what the business actually needs.
The real cost in most organisations isn’t in any one function getting it wrong. It’s in the gaps between functions where nobody’s looking. I help senior leaders see those connections, make sense of what’s actually happening across their business, and turn that clarity into progress.
