My purpose is to ignite the spark of growth and success in leaders, teams and companies whilst cherishing the human touch.

The purpose of Mark’s Scale Up Essays is to give CEOs and Teams in Venture Capital and Private Equity businesses insights and practical content to help navigate through the highs and lows of scaling up your leadership and your business.

WHO I HELP:
+ Ambitious leaders who have big audacious goals and who humbly realise they have blind spots
+ Companies on the growth and value creation journey
+ £1m-£100m in revenues
+ Private equity or venture capital-backed or family-owned
+ Exit on the horizon

WHY MIGHT I BE A GOOD PARTNER TO HAVE ALONGSIDE YOU ON YOUR JOURNEY?
> I've sat in your shoes - I've had multiple roles (founder, entrepreneur, coach/mentor/advisor, director, PE partner, angel investor)
> Deep and wide experience - I have been closely involved in multiple different companies (20+) in diverse sectors (restaurants, health & fitness, retail, food service, BTB SaaS, fintech, professional services, recruitment, life sciences)
> I know how to create company value and what buyers of companies want having successfully bought and sold 10+ businesses
> I can help you raise funds - I have raised over £2bn over the years and have seen over 1000 pitch decks
> I understand how to get the best out of leaders and teams - much of my work is centred around maximising human potential

I like to win. But more importantly, I love helping others win. But always in a values-based, human way.
