I run complex programmes for large organisations and build software on the side.
Sometimes the software becomes the more interesting story.

Fifteen years delivering the kind of projects that tend to go wrong. Currently also founder of ka-do — an AI task manager I built because the problem was genuinely unsolved.

Things I've shipped

ka-do

Live

A task manager for people who are genuinely overwhelmed, not just busy. Built in three months using React, Firebase and a lot of late nights. Launching soon.

Countermeasure

Coming soon

IR35 has been a mess since 2021. A contract intelligence tool for UK contractors who'd rather understand their exposure than guess at it.

Coming soon

Atlantikwall Archive

Live

A research archive for WWII Atlantic Wall coastal defences, maintained by my father. I keep the lights on technically. He does the hard part.

Is your project in trouble?

Live

A free AI diagnostic tool for PMs and business owners. Seven questions. Ten minutes. A one-page report you can take into any meeting.

Delivery

I've spent fifteen years inside organisations like Asda, Morrisons, the Premier League and KPMG — usually brought in when something important is behind, broken, or both.

I work as an independent consultant. Engagements tend to be programme recovery, complex integrations, and digital transformation work that's gone sideways.

Currently taking on contract work — the best starting point is LinkedIn →
