Product Strategy & Leadership

Build the product function your company needs next.

Growing companies often reach a point where founder-led product decisions stop scaling. I help organisations build product capability, align decision-making, and scale product leadership.

Common Starting Points

A few signs it might be time to bring in product strategy leadership.

You're still the bottleneck for product decisions.
You're hiring your first PMs.
Everyone's busy, but it's unclear what's most important.
Engineering is moving quickly, but you're not sure they're working on the best things.
You're scaling quickly and need experienced product leadership.
There's no single owner accountable for product decisions.
How I Help

Every engagement starts with understanding your business, your product, and where your biggest opportunities and constraints lie. From there, I help create the strategy, operating model, and leadership foundations needed for your next stage of growth.

01
Create clarity around what to build next

Setting priorities and sequencing the roadmap around customer needs, business goals and evidence, not the loudest voice in the room. Drawing on 7+ years leading product functions at global scale.

  • Prioritisation and sequencing frameworks
  • A roadmap the leadership team can actually rally around
02
Build a product function that scales

Standing up the product function from the ground up, from playbooks and rituals to how decisions actually get made. I build a product practice that outlasts my involvement, for companies with no dedicated product discipline yet.

  • Rituals, ceremonies and decision rights that fit your stage
  • Playbooks and documentation that outlast the engagement
03
Strengthen product leadership

Working directly alongside founders and leadership teams as a senior product partner, helping turn vision into product decisions that teams can confidently execute.

  • A senior product voice in leadership and board conversations
  • Translating between engineering, design and the business
04
Set up your permanent product leader for success

Supporting the hire of your permanent product lead—from defining the role and running the search to a structured handover that sets them up to succeed.

  • Role scoping, JD writing and a structured interview process
  • Handover and onboarding support for your new hire

Get in touch

I take a small number of engagements at any given time, working with founders and leadership teams who need experienced product leadership without a full-time hire. If this sounds like what you need, I'd love to hear from you.
