Engagements

Scoped, time-boxed, answerable to a number.

We work as practitioners inside your team rather than as a parallel programme. Every engagement is defined by the decision it changes and the metric that should move.

01

The book is leaking.

Four weeks · Portfolio diagnostic

Where the book is leaking, and by how much. Acquisition, approval, portfolio action and collections examined against expected value.

  • Ranked interventions
  • Estimated prize on each
  • Priority actions
  • Evidence required to validate each one
02

The book needs to grow.

Ten to fourteen weeks · Portfolio action

A line management, activation, repricing, retention or collections programme designed and tested against a control group — measured, handed over, and built as a repeatable cycle rather than a one-off campaign.

03

The decisions are wrong.

Eight to twelve weeks · Model or policy build

A scorecard, an NPV decisioning framework, a pricing structure or a rebuilt credit policy — developed, validated, documented and handed over with transfer of method rather than delivery of an artefact.

04

There is no credit function yet.

Six to nine months · Zero to first loan

Standing up the credit function of a new lender.

  • First-generation credit policy
  • Decisioning architecture, build vs buy
  • Vendor selection · bureau and open-finance strategy
  • Data architecture and model governance
  • First-line credit team and operating model

Retained advisory

Monthly cadence · ongoing

Runs alongside any of the above — access between cycles, and a second opinion on decisions that are difficult to reverse. Available at CRO, chief data officer, chief credit officer or founder level.
