What We Do 

1

Delivery of High-Stakes Communication Projects

We are brought in to lead and deliver defined, high-stakes communications workstreams that cannot afford delay.

This may include:

  • ESG or sustainability communications under scrutiny
     

  • Transformation and restructuring communications
     

  • Escalating issues and near-crisis situations
     

  • Leadership transitions or reputational inflection points
     

  • Politically or regulatorily sensitive initiatives
     

We embed within your team and take responsibility for delivery.

Clear mandate. Defined timeframe. Measurable progress.

Senior Capacity without the Headcount ​

When leadership bandwidth is stretched and timelines cannot move, we provide short-term senior capacity at director level.

We operate as part of your team, strengthening capability while ensuring critical work continues.

No recruitment lag.

No permanent commitment.

No long-term dependency.

Just experienced leadership applied when needed most.

​Crisis & Pressure Preparedness

Because much of our experience has been built in crisis, we also help teams prepare for it.

Modern communications functions operate in an environment of constant exposure.

Most organisations have crisis plans.

Fewer have governance and decision-making systems that function under real pressure.

We assess whether your communications leadership and structures will hold — and where they need strengthening.

The result is practical resilience, not theoretical reassurance.

This work is grounded in direct experience leading communications during national and international crises.

How We Work  

Define the Mandate

We begin with focused conversations to:

  • Identify where pressure is accumulating
     

  • Clarify the specific workstream requiring ownership
     

  • Define what success looks like
     

  • Agree scope and timeframe
     

Every engagement is precise and time-bound.

Embed and Deliver

We embed within your team for a defined period

  • Take ownership of the agreed workstream
     

  • Simplify competing priorities
     

  • Support critical decisions
     

  • Maintain momentum under scrutiny
     

Our role is to reduce friction, restore clarity and ensure delivery.

We step back once the objective is achieved.
