02 · Project

Know what needs doing? Scope the work around the outcome.

Defined Project Support is for owners who already know the change they need and want experienced commercial or operational help to deliver it.

Defined Project Support

Examples include start-up planning, acquisition review, occupancy improvement, management structure, operational change, growth preparation or sale readiness.

Price: scope and fee agreed before work starts.

Discuss a project

What this is not

It is not an open-ended consultancy retainer. The intended outcome, scope, deliverables, boundaries and fee are agreed before the work starts.

If you are still working out what the problem is, start with a review instead.

03 · Ongoing support

Experienced senior input without another full-time senior hire.

Regular commercial and operational support for nursery owners who need experienced challenge, management follow-through or additional senior capacity.

Ongoing Senior Support

The structure can include fractional Operations Director or MD-style support, retained advisory or NED-style challenge depending on what the business needs.

Price: monthly scope and fee agreed in advance.

Explore ongoing support

When it makes sense

Useful when the business needs regular senior attention across performance, management, growth or change, but a permanent full-time appointment is not the right answer.

Specialist service

When the problem is marketing and enquiries.
