I’m Founder and CEO of Lignum Group and Foundary. We work with owner-led, PE-backed and public manufacturers across specialist construction and building products, helping them secure the leadership that unlocks growth. Our focus is simple: * Board and C-suite appointments * Scaling leadership teams in high-growth environments * Strategic introductions between founders and investors We operate at the intersection of talent and enterprise value. From cladding and roofing to data centre infrastructure and advanced manufacturing, we support capital-intensive businesses where execution, engineering capability and commercial leadership directly impact shareholder outcomes. Over the past decade, we’ve built relationships across the US, Europe and the Middle East; partnering with presidents, CEOs, boards and private equity groups navigating scale, transition or transaction. I’m particularly interested in businesses at inflexion points: * Rapid growth straining internal capability * Founder-led companies preparing for investment * PE-backed platforms targeting accelerated value creation If you’re scaling, restructuring or preparing for a deal, let’s talk.
