Product Leadership Advisor

Building teams that deliver
results, not just features.

I work with executives and founders when product has become hard to get right. Most engagements start with a call from someone who was referred by someone they trust.

Taking on work

Interim leadership  ·  Advisory  ·  AI  ·  Speaking

Sydney, AU. Working globally.

For fifteen years I've led product in the situations that don't have clean answers. The team that's busy but not shipping. The leadership gap that needs filling before the quarter is gone. The AI question the board keeps asking. I work out of Sydney with organisations here and overseas, in whatever shape the engagement needs to take.

Situations I know well

What brings people to this site

  1. When a product leader exits and the team needs to keep moving without losing the quarter.

    Most organisations try to wait for the right permanent hire. Sometimes the gap between now and then is too expensive to leave unfilled.

    Leadership continuity

  2. When the board keeps asking about AI and nobody in the room has a convincing answer.

    Not a strategy document. A clear view of what's real opportunity and what can wait, based on having actually built things with AI, not just read about it.

    AI readiness

  3. When the team is building and the headcount is growing, but the problem isn't going away.

    Usually structural: wrong roles, unclear ownership, or a process that worked at half the size. Hard to see from inside. Takes about two weeks to diagnose from outside.

    Delivery problems

  4. When you need one person to hold strategy and execution at the same time.

    Some situations need one or the other. A few need both. The shape of the engagement depends on what you actually need, not on a standard package.

Selected work

What the work has looked like

  • JD Codec

    Co-founded this. We built something that makes AI browser agents faster and cheaper to run by filtering out what doesn't matter. It's live and people use it.

  • Zouba

    Helped a Dubai-based delivery startup get from idea to launch. Worked across product strategy, technical architecture, and go-to-market. Fractional from the start.

  • Woolworths Group

    Worked with their digital fulfilment team for a couple of years. The platform was being treated as a cost problem. Left it being talked about as strategy.

  • IAG

    Inside IAG while they were working out how to ship product faster. Annual releases were the norm. They got to weekly. Insurance at enterprise scale is its own kind of complicated.

How engagements work

Shape and length, in plain terms

I don't publish day rates because the right shape varies more than the price does. Engagements run from one-off strategic input through to a locked-in three-month-plus retainer. Some are fractional, a few days a month working alongside your team. Others have been short stints full-time when the situation called for it.

Bring your situation. I'll tell you honestly whether I'm the right person for it.
