Coaching, peer groups, strategy and acquisitions. Different ways in, depending on where your business is and what it needs next.
See All our ServicesI've spent nearly three decades building businesses rather than advising on them.
Five in total, across gas and renewables, training, short-term lets and property, with three exits along the way, including Viva Training, the Halifax training centre I grew to national reach over eight years.
Now, as a business coach and M&A adviser based in Halifax, I work with owners across the UK on the things that decide how a business performs and what it's eventually worth: structure, leadership, decision quality and exit readiness.
Decades of proof: 28+ years founding, scaling, and exiting businesses
Lessons that work: £34m of deals reviewed, shaped into strategies that deliver real outcomes
Impact at scale: thousands of professionals trained and supported across the UK

Yes. From spotting opportunities to structuring deals and integrating businesses, we guide you every step so acquisitions add real, lasting value.
