Hi, I’m Sam — founder of SAMCO and a strategic and commercial consultant helping charities, SMEs, and purpose-driven organisations grow with clarity, confidence, and lasting impact.
With over a decade of experience across charity, government, education, and enterprise, I’ve led national programmes, managed £4B+ in projects, and delivered results that drive real change.
At SAMCO, I help organisations develop clear strategies, strengthen business models, and unlock new income opportunities — from fundraising and partnerships to commercialisation and product development. I also support teams with messaging, marketing, and operations so they can grow sustainably and work more efficiently.
Whether you're scaling up, launching something new, or refining your direction — I bring hands-on support, strategic insight, and energy to help you make it happen.
