If your business is running on vibes and guesswork, you’re not alone.

I help founders like you stop winging it and start running their businesses with efficiency, confidence and support.

About me

Focus, strategy, and support —
from someone who actually gets it.

I’m Becki, operations and finance professional, systems nerd, and business wingwoman for design-based business founders who are ready to grow with intention.

I am an experienced CFO/COO specialising in design operations management. Over the last 18 years I have worked with many businesses from start ups to global tech brands to help them streamline their processes and workflows in order to achieve maximum efficiencies and perhaps more importantly, award winning customer experiences.

Ways we can work together

By the hour

Tailored for small creative businesses who aren't sure how much time they need and want a pay-as-you-go service. No minimum hours. Use it weekly, monthly, or as a one-off power hour.

Monthly Retainer

For small creative businesses looking to grow without hiring a full-time operations director. Includes 10 hours per week, embedded in your business, managing and reporting on real processes. Think part-time COO.

£2,450

No more chaos.
Just real progress.

You've got offers. Clients. A sense that things should be working. But behind the scenes? It's chaos. Whether pay as you go or a monthly retainer we implement slick processes I can manage and report on.

What our clients say

"Working with Becki has freed up so much of my time, I don't know what we did before."

"I started my business doing everything myself and didn't realise how much time was taken up by operational management. I'd lost the passion I had for the business after being bogged down by admin."

"I was so overwhelmed I couldn’t think straight - now my business basically runs itself!”

“I was drowning in admin and close to burn out - I just wanted to focus on design. Becki ran a 2 week project with me to fix the systems and implement new processes and now it’s a dream!”
