Director-level reward consultancy for businesses with 20 to 250 people. The quickest route from a pay or grading headache to a fix you can stand behind, usually in days.
Hire me directly, or buy a fix for a specific reward problem. That is the whole offer.
Director-level reward leadership, by the day or the project. No permanent hire, no agency markup, no cottage industry. I plug in, fix the thing, and leave you with something that runs without me.
The common reward problems, packaged. Pay reviews, grading, benchmarking, benefits. Beautiful, defensible, done in days. You pick the problem, I hand you the solution.
Reward problems do not announce themselves. They show up as a resignation, a grievance, or a pay range you cannot defend.
A regretted leaver costs you their salary again to replace. Did anyone connect it to pay?
From June 2026, any UK employee in scope can ask for the pay range and the average. A shrug is not an answer.
The spreadsheet works right up until someone asks why Sarah is a Grade 4 and Tom isn't. That day is already in your diary, you just haven't seen it.
Mercer and WTW will sell you a 200-page survey for five figures. I tell you what to do with it, by Thursday.
Deliverables your managers will actually open. The bar in reward is low. I clear it on purpose.
If this is what I give away, imagine the paid version.
Days, not quarters. 24 to 48 hours on most things.
Built once with AI, kept bespoke. You get the speed, you keep the quality.
Pick the line that sounds like you.
You refuse to treat pay as a guessing game and you want it run like a P&L, not a cottage industry.
You wear six hats, you know reward would fix half your fires, and you want to walk into the next meeting looking like you brought in firepower.
You are the only one who gets it internally and you want an outside edge nobody else in your network has.
No pitch attached. Take the tool, use it, come back when you want the tailored version.
Entry-level HR to Director of Reward in seven years. Last stop, Director at Marston's. Now I do it for you, without the internal politics holding it up.
I've stepped out of the internal machinery so I can be your agent. I supply the results and outputs, and I'm the one thing that doesn't slow you down.
Read the longer story →Free call, no slide deck, no pitch. You leave with a clear view of where you'd start, whether or not you ever hire me.
Want me to walk you through where you'd start, or just send the pack to explore first?
