Hi, I’m sarah windham.
Growing up, my dad was building a boutique construction company, I grew up will small business building decisions discussed over the dinner table. I started my career working for him for a year as the lowliest admin. Since then, I have spent almost five years in the operations departments of small and medium organizations in the US and UK. I’ve seen the good, the bad, and the confused.
I have naturally become someone who provides support to small business founders, working with a sustainability focused grocery service, a gender neutral fashion brand, and an accessible perfume business. I have seen how lonely and overwhelming being a founder can be, especially when you’ve set yourself the extra challenge of operating in an ethical way. My consulting practice allows me to use my skills and experience to provide support, advice and practical steps to achieve your goals for your business without compromising your values.
My Approach
Whether your business is just you and your laptop, you’ve built a team of twenty, or you’re somewhere in-between, I can offer support. If you have concrete problems or just know you’re overwhelmed and need help but have no idea how or what or who to ask, I can meet you where you are. I will support you to step back and consider the ethics and impact of you work, on the planet, on human rights globally, on your customers, on your staff, and on yourself.
Dream it
We will start with a free 30-minute 1:1 consultation to talk through your goals and challenges to make sure that I am a good fit for your needs. This initial consultation is a space to imagine what could be and to take stock of the big picture.
Build it
I will develop a bespoke work plan for your business needs, whether it’s hiring, backend structuring, or culture building within your existing team. I can help you plan or provide hands on support to execute a plan we build together.
