Retained delivery support

Director-level delivery expertise when you need it

Access Jon’s time without the cost or commitment of a full-time hire. Retained delivery support provides a minimum of one day per month, offering Jon’s insight, guidance, and hands-on advice that usually sits at director level, all in a flexible, easy-to-access way.

With over 20 years of delivery experience, including nine years running an agency and leading its delivery practice, Jon brings perspective, capability, and calm to complex delivery challenges.

Whether shaping strategy, sense-checking plans, supporting teams, or providing a trusted sounding board, this support helps make delivery feel lighter and more manageable.

Why retained delivery support works

This approach gives you:

  • A trusted advisor available when it’s needed - you or your team has someone to turn to for guidance

  • Sounding board for tricky situations - get clarity before decisions are made

  • Director-level sense-checking - review estimates, plans, proposals, and risks with an experienced eye

  • Team and capability support - hiring, shaping teams, and improving ways of working

  • Space to think, plan, and breathe - helping take pressure off so you and your team can focus on delivery

Who this is for

  • Founders, directors, or heads of profession

  • Teams without internal delivery leadership

  • Organisations going through change, growth, or uncertainty

Availability is limited and exclusive, with only 2–3 days per month initially, ensuring access to Jon’s time that is genuinely valuable and undiluted.

How it works

  • Flexible minimum

    From 1 day per month, booked in advance

  • Time your way

    Use it in single chunks or spread across weeks

  • Focused support

    We agree together what your priorities are for the time

If you want access to delivery expertise without full-time overhead, and the peace of mind that comes with someone you can rely on, this is for you.

“Jon’s support and advice has been invaluable in helping me progress with my own clients and projects.

He’s kind, thoughtful, and has the experience to help navigate messy projects.

I've worked with dozens of delivery and project managers over my career, and Jon is among the very best.”
