Operations consulting for founders
Growing fast. Held back by your own business.
You’re the bottleneck in your own business. We fix that.
You didn’t build this
to feel stuck in it.
Most founders hit a point where the business stops feeling like theirs. Not because it’s failing. Because it’s consuming everything. Sound familiar?
“Every founder I’ve worked with has been in some version of this position. Smart people. Good businesses. Just buried under the weight of their own growth. That’s not a character flaw — it’s a structural one.”
/ What it usually looks like
- Processes you outgrew six months ago
- Systems that don’t talk to each other (and never will, left alone)
- A team working hard. Just not always on the same thing.
- No real clarity on what to fix first
/ How Opsergo helps
What changes. Specifically.
Not theory. Not a framework borrowed from a business school textbook. This is what we’ve consistently seen shift when a founder finally gets the right support around them.
Clarity on what to fix first
Most founders we talk to already know something’s wrong. They just can’t see where to start. We can. (And we’ll tell you straight.)
Systems that talk to each other
When your tools don’t connect, your team fills the gaps manually. That’s time, energy and margin quietly disappearing. We fix the plumbing.
A team that pulls together
Structure matters. So does trust. We work with your people — not above them — to build something they actually believe in.
Growth that doesn’t break things
Scaling without the right foundations is just chaos at speed. We build what you need before you need it. Quietly. Properly.
Strategy you can actually use
Not a 40-slide deck. Not a list of recommendations. A clear plan, in plain English, that you can act on — this week if you want to.
A partner, not a clipboard
You get Neil. Not a junior with a framework and a tight deadline. Someone who’s been in the room before — and knows what good looks like.
/ What we do
Five ways we work.
One goal.
Every engagement is different. But they all end the same way — a business that doesn’t need you to hold it together.
Start here
Operational Audit
Two weeks. We go deep into how your business actually runs — not how you think it runs. You get a clear picture of exactly what’s broken, why, and what to fix first.
Typically delivered within 10 working days
Fix the friction
Process Optimisation
The manual workarounds, the double-handling, the tasks nobody owns. We find them, redesign them, and make sure the fix actually sticks.
Faster handoffs, fewer dropped balls
Plan the next move
Growth Strategy
Not a slide deck. A 90-day operational plan, specific to your business, written in plain English. Actionable the day you receive it.
A plan you can brief your team on Monday
Bring the team with you
Change Management
Changing how a business works is hard. Doing it without losing the people who make it work is harder. We manage the transition so it lands properly.
Change that sticks, not change that scars
Build for what’s next
Team & Org Design
The structure that got you here won’t get you there. We design the team and reporting lines for the business you’re building next.
An org chart your people actually understand
Not sure which?
Most founders start with the audit.
It tells you what to fix first — and whether you need us for the rest.
Book a call/ The process
Most founders who reach out already know something needs to change.
Here’s what happens when you decide to do something about it.

A clear picture of what’s broken, what’s working, and what to do next. In plain English. With an order of priority.

We get it done
Alongside your team. Not above them. We implement, track, adjust. We don’t disappear when it gets complicated.
/ In their words
What our clients say
“We brought Neil in for a quick-win audit expecting a list of recommendations. What we got was £50k of savings identified in the first week. It more than paid for itself before we’d even started the real work.”
“We’d been growing fast but nobody really knew who owned what. Neil gave us a clear org chart, defined roles and responsibilities properly, and helped us bring in a booking system that actually works. We finally feel like a business that can scale.”
“Neil helped me and the rest of the directors finally see the business clearly. We knew things weren’t running as well as they should — we just couldn’t agree on where to start. Neil came in as fractional Operations Director, cut through it, and got the whole leadership team aligned. We started with strategy, moved into execution, and he’s still working with us today.”
Neil Allen
Founder, Opsergo
Neil started Opsergo because he kept watching good businesses struggle with problems that weren’t actually that hard to fix — they just needed someone to come in and say it plainly. That’s still why he does it.
