Empowering Your Business

Our Experience
At Ellis-Carrington, experience isn’t theoretical — it’s earned. Our consultants are senior operators who have built, scaled, and transformed technology businesses across global markets.
We specialise in fractional and project-based leadership, stepping in to deliver targeted impact — from defining strategy to executing growth programmes and building the commercial engines that sustain them.
Each of our consultants brings an average of 25 years’ experience leading revenue, sales, and go-to-market teams within some of the world’s most respected software, AI, and professional services organisations.
Our background spans start-up to enterprise, with a track record that includes:
-
Scaling SaaS and automation ventures to $1bn+ valuations
-
Delivering ARR growth in complex enterprise and regulated markets
-
Building partner ecosystems with Microsoft, AWS, Google Cloud, Deloitte, Accenture, and EY
-
Embedding governance, enablement, and data-led decisioning into global revenue operations
This depth of experience ensures our clients gain immediate executive capability, board-level insight, and measurable commercial results — without the delay or cost of permanent hiring cycles.
We help software companies answer the most critical commercial questions — Is there a market? Who is it for? What value do we bring? How do we scale?
We partner with founders, boards, and investors to build revenue engines that are not only high-performing, but market-validated, customer-aligned, and partner-ready.
Our work spans the full commercial lifecycle — from strategic exploration to operational execution:

At Ellis Carrington, we believe sustainable growth is built on more than targets — it’s built on truth, discipline, and clarity of purpose.
Every engagement begins with a simple question: what will create lasting value? We cut through noise and complexity to focus on what truly moves the dial — a clear market, a resonant message, and a repeatable model for growth.
We bring the rigour of enterprise leadership and the agility of a start-up mindset. Our approach is:
-
Practical – grounded in data, informed by experience, and designed for execution.
-
Collaborative – working shoulder-to-shoulder with founders, boards, and teams.
-
Ethical – guided by transparency, trust, and alignment with our clients’ long-term success.
We believe that strategy only matters when it delivers measurable outcomes — and that great leadership means leaving a business stronger, clearer, and more confident than when we arrived.
