Most early-stage companies hit a point where the pace of strategic ambition outstrips the operational infrastructure. Reporting is inconsistent. Projects drift. Risk management is reactive. Investor confidence erodes.
Sometimes the challenge is more acute: a company in financial distress, a cash-flow crisis, or a board relationship that has broken down. These situations require experienced, calm, structured intervention.
Jonas Weiss, our Director of Product and Operations, brings a rare combination of large-scale operational experience and product design thinking to startup advisory. Trained at the Bartlett School of Architecture at UCL, he has coordinated projects of extraordinary complexity, including a €200M luxury hotel, a 700,000 sqft urban masterplan, and a Mumbai skyscraper, and co-founded and operated a technology company as COO. He applies that systems-design discipline, alongside fluency in AI and agentic workflow integration, to help startups build operational infrastructure that scales.
Implementing structured project management frameworks tailored to fast-moving startup environments.
Creating reporting frameworks that keep stakeholders informed and engaged without consuming your team's time.
Building risk registers and mitigation strategies for technical, commercial, and operational risks.
For businesses in difficulty, we provide rapid diagnostic, stabilisation planning, and execution support.
Bringing a systems-design approach to product architecture, consumer pathways, and user experience, informed by large-scale operational delivery and end-to-end platform development.
Operations and management advisory is typically structured as a retained engagement or fractional executive role. This means embedded involvement over weeks or months, rather than a one-time project. For distress situations, we work on rapid-response project terms.
