Commercial Strategy and Market Structure

I advise organisations on commercial strategy and market positioning, drawing on hands-on P&L ownership and multi-market execution experience in FMCG. I publish independent strategic memorandums that support executive decision-making by clarifying competitive dynamics and their strategic consequences.

Methodology

I take a structural approach, treating markets as systems shaped by incentives, constraints, and feedback loops. This involves analysing competitive behaviour, tracing signal distortions, and identifying long-cycle shifts driven by technology, regulation, and changing consumer expectations. The aim is clarity of mechanism, not prediction—so leaders can act on what is actually happening beneath surface narratives.
