Jefferson Consulting is an independent business consultancy working with founders and CEOs of young and ambitious companies.
The Challenge
All businesses no matter what size have their own challenges and growing pains.
A start up is a unique kind of SME, aside from finding a transformative market opportunity and solving it, the key distinction from other small companies is that often they are overly concerned with growth. At times this can even be at the expense of profitability.
Roughly, 70% of start-ups fail in the first 5 years of operation, more often than not the cause is poor decision making. Whether that be the founder, investors, or advisors, it is ultimately the people and the decisions that they make that result in the failure.
This is the driving force behind Jefferson Consulting; we want to work with start-ups at every stage of their development journey to help them overcome the challenges they face.

Cari Baldwin
Partner – Unreal Digital Group
Tom is a business coach and advisor. It sets him apart from other consultants. He prioritises culture, organisational objectives and a role when working on a brief. It’s an approach that drives organisational performance and ensures that the leaders that he delivers thrive.
Tom has the inside track on our sector. He’s an invaluable source of insight. I’m grateful for his support for my own personal development and coaching, and introduction to non executive roles.
Stephen Waddington
Managing Director – Metia
Jefferson has been a huge asset to our business and to us personally over the years. They are extremely talented business advisers, able to judge what we need before we see it ourselves. An astute judge of character, they always makes time for people, plus knows everyone in our sector. Cannot recommend Tom and his team highly enough!
Lorna Charlish

I have known and worked with Tom and the Jefferson team for over 10 years. They have helped me find the right opportunities to develop my own career; supported me in finding the right leaders when developing our business; they even played a central role in successfully selling my business by finding the right partner to acquire us.
Jefferson is a special breed of business advisor, people who truly have your interest at heart and care about your success.
