Construction business consulting
I ran a construction company for 22 years so I know what it's like to be in your shoes. I can help with bidding strategy, project costing, subcontractor management, and general business growth. I'm not going to tell you about theory — I'm going to tell you what actually worked for me and what didn't. Best fit for small to mid-size construction firms that are trying to grow but keep running into the same problems.
Hotel operations advisor — expanding from Portugal to Spain
We run 3 boutique hotels in Lisbon and Porto and we're looking at opening our first property in Barcelona or Madrid next year. Need someone who knows the Spanish hospitality market and can advise on everything from property selection to local regulations to staffing. Ideally someone who's opened hotels in Spain before. Part-time, probably 2-3 days per month for the next 6-8 months.
Interim Program Director — large-scale project delivery
I run large programs. $50M-$200M, multi-year, lots of moving parts. Available for interim program director roles or PMO setup. I'm PMP/PRINCE2 certified but what actually matters is that I've delivered 15+ major programs without a single one going off the rails (well, one did, but I caught it early and we course-corrected). I'm direct, organized, and I don't let scope creep happen on my watch.
Startup fundraising help
Pitch deck review, fundraising strategy, investor intros. Also available as an independent board member.
Looking for a SaaS advisor/mentor (pre-seed stage)
We're two technical founders building a route optimization SaaS for logistics companies. We have a working MVP and 3 pilot customers but honestly have no idea how to do sales, pricing, or fundraising. Looking for someone who's built a B2B SaaS before and is willing to be an informal advisor — maybe a call every other week plus some async help? We can't pay market rates yet but happy to discuss equity or a reduced rate. We just need someone who gets it.
Energy transition advisory — renewables, grid, project finance
If you're an investor looking at energy assets, I can help you figure out what's real and what's hype. If you're an energy company trying to navigate the transition, I've done it myself. I know wind development inside and out, I understand grid economics, and I can talk to both engineers and finance people. Most of my work lately has been with PE firms and family offices evaluating renewable energy investments. Happy to do longer advisory engagements too.
Hotel operations & hospitality advisory
Looking for advisory or board roles in hospitality. Managed luxury and boutique hotel properties across Europe and the Middle East for 22 years.
Luxury Brand Strategy & APAC Market Entry
I advise luxury and premium brands on expansion into Asian markets. This includes market assessment, retail strategy (flagship stores and department store concessions), and e-commerce channel development. I only work with genuine premium and luxury brands — if you're selling mid-market products and hoping to 'premiumize,' I am not the right fit.
Lean manufacturing consultant — production optimization
Axel Group is seeking a consultant with expertise in lean manufacturing and production optimization for our main facility in Gothenburg. Scope includes value stream mapping, waste reduction analysis, and implementation support. Initial engagement 3 months with potential extension. Must be able to work on-site.
Logistics optimization — warehousing, freight, last-mile
I optimize logistics networks. Warehouse layout and automation, freight cost reduction, last-mile delivery improvement. I've done this across 15 countries for a Fortune 500 company and now I do it independently for companies that need the expertise but can't justify a full-time logistics VP. Typical engagement is a 4-6 week diagnostic followed by implementation support. I can usually find 15-25% freight cost savings — it's almost always there if nobody's looked in a while.
Real Estate Investment Advisory
Available for commercial real estate advisory — investment analysis, portfolio reviews, and development project oversight. Strong in European and LatAm markets. Can join investment committees or advise on specific transactions.
Non-profit strategy, fundraising, and impact measurement
I advise NGOs and social enterprises on three things: getting funded, measuring impact, and scaling without losing your soul. My grant writing has about an 80% success rate over the last decade — not because I'm magic but because I only write proposals for programs that actually make sense. I'm most useful for organizations in the $1M-$30M range that are past the startup phase but haven't yet figured out how to grow sustainably. I also do board advisory for foundations and impact investors who want someone with field experience, not just financial modeling.
GDPR & Data Privacy Specialist — Ongoing Advisory
LegalBridge Partners is seeking an experienced data privacy professional to provide ongoing advisory services to our corporate clients. The ideal candidate will have deep expertise in GDPR compliance, DPIA processes, and cross-border data transfer mechanisms. Prior experience with financial services or healthcare data is strongly preferred. This is a retainer-based engagement with an expected commitment of 8-12 hours per month.
Fractional CISO & Security Program Development
Offering fractional CISO services for mid-size companies, particularly in financial services and fintech. I build security programs, prepare organizations for regulatory audits (NIS2, DORA, ISO 27001), and establish incident response capabilities. I also do one-off security assessments and board-level security briefings. If you've just had an incident or a near-miss and you're not sure what to do next, that's a good time to call me.
Crisis communications and corporate PR
If you're in a crisis right now, I can start immediately — I've handled regulatory investigations, product recalls, and executive departures. If you're not in a crisis, I can help you prepare so you're not scrambling when one hits. I also do ongoing corporate communications advisory — internal comms strategy, investor communications, media training for executives. The internal comms piece is honestly where most companies need the most help, they just don't realize it until it's too late.
Data strategy & analytics setup
I help companies get value from their data. Governance, pipelines, dashboards that people actually use.
Need a marketing mentor/advisor — small agency trying to grow
OK so here's the deal. We're a small digital agency (6 people) doing about €400K/year and we're stuck. Good at the work, bad at growing the business. Looking for someone who's scaled an agency before and can help us figure out pricing, positioning, and how to get bigger clients without burning out. Not looking for a consultant who'll give us a 50-page deck — just someone to talk to regularly and keep us honest. Maybe a few hours per week?
Sales team building & revenue acceleration
Fractional VP Sales or sales coaching. I get in the room with your reps, ride along on calls, and figure out why deals are stalling. Then we fix it. No 90-page decks.
EdTech evaluation & learning program design
I think I could be really useful for organizations that are trying to figure out online learning and don't know where to start. There are hundreds of EdTech platforms out there and most of them overpromise. I can help you evaluate what actually fits your needs, design curricula that work in digital formats, and train your staff to use it all effectively. I come at this from a teaching background, not a tech background, which means I focus on whether people are actually learning — not just whether the platform looks nice. I'm also happy to work with universities or schools that need help modernizing. I've been through it myself and I know how resistant faculty can be (I was one of them for a while).
Interim COO needed
Looking for an interim COO for our hospital group while we recruit permanently. Healthcare operations experience required. Start ASAP.
Engineering Team Coaching & Process Improvement
I help engineering managers and small CTOs get better at the people side of their job. How to run hiring that actually finds good people, how to set up sprint processes that don't make everyone miserable, how to have the hard conversations about performance. I'm not going to tell you about "engineering excellence" or whatever — I'm going to help you solve the specific problems your team has right now. I do this as coaching (1-on-1 with your eng lead) or as a short consulting engagement where I embed with the team for a few weeks.
ESG Strategy and EU Sustainability Reporting
I help companies develop real sustainability strategies — not just reports that look good. From materiality assessments to full EU taxonomy alignment. I'm especially useful if you're an industrial or manufacturing company because that's where my background is and I understand the operational realities. I'm tired of seeing companies hire big consultancies who produce beautiful documents that nobody implements, so I focus on practical stuff you can actually do.
Senior project manager — offshore wind development
We have two offshore wind projects in the pipeline (North Sea) and need an experienced PM to oversee permitting and early-stage development. Must have energy sector background. This is a contract role, probably 12+ months.
Healthcare consulting
Available for part-time consulting in hospital operations. Prefer short engagements.
Risk management advisory
Enterprise risk frameworks, insurance program optimization. Former CRO.
Legal Counsel — Regulatory Compliance & Cross-Border Transactions
I provide fractional general counsel services to companies operating in or expanding into the Middle East and North Africa region, with particular expertise in fintech regulatory frameworks. My services include regulatory strategy and licensing, GDPR and data privacy compliance, cross-border transaction structuring, and legal function setup for scaling companies. I am also available for specific project-based engagements such as regulatory audits or transaction support.
Brand Strategy & Market Entry — Fractional CMO
I do two things really well: help companies enter new markets and fix marketing departments that aren't working. If you're spending $5M+ on marketing and can't tell me what's working, we should talk. I typically work as a fractional CMO for 6-12 months — long enough to actually change things, not just diagnose them. Best fit is companies in the $10M-$200M revenue range that have outgrown their marketing but aren't ready for a $400K CMO hire.
Interim HR Director / Organizational Consulting
Available for interim HR leadership during transitions or restructurings. Also do executive coaching on the side.
Part-time CFO for Series A fintech startup
One of our clients (a Stockholm-based fintech doing ~$2M ARR) needs a part-time CFO to help with fundraising prep, financial modeling, and getting investor materials in order. They've outgrown their accountant but aren't ready for a full-time hire. Ideally someone who's been through a Series B+ before. 2-3 days per week for 3-6 months.
Fractional CTO / Tech Advisory
Fractional CTO for non-tech companies that need senior technical guidance. I do tech stack evaluations, vendor selection, engineering team assessments, and digital transformation roadmaps. Not interested in writing code for you — interested in making sure you're building the right thing the right way. 2-3 days a week max.
Manufacturing operations - lean transformation, supply chain fixes
If your factory floor is a mess or your supply chain keeps surprising you, I can probably help. I've done lean transformations at 6 different plants and I won't sugarcoat what I find. Fair warning: I'm hands-on. I'll be on your shop floor, not in a conference room. Typical gig is 3-6 months, can do less if it's a specific problem.
Procurement overhaul & cost reduction
I come in, look at your supplier contracts, your procurement processes, and your spend data, and I find money. Usually 10-20% savings on the categories I address, within the first year. I've done this at companies spending anywhere from $50M to $2B annually. I can also build your procurement function if you don't have one, or fix it if it's not working. I'm not gentle about it — if your team is rubber-stamping POs without competitive bidding, I'm going to say so.
CFO-Level Financial Advisory & Board Roles
I am available for non-executive director positions, audit committee membership, and financial advisory engagements. My experience is strongest in IPO preparation, financial restructuring, and building finance teams in high-growth environments. I work best with companies that have reached a stage where they need institutional-grade financial governance but are not yet ready to hire a full-time CFO at that level. Typical engagement is 2-4 days per month.
