James Major
Managing Director
Senior Operator - delivery, Risk & Capital Decisions
Interim Profile (Proposition)
Senior operator with deep engineering, commercial, and delivery experience built through founding and running businesses in complex delivery environments.
I focus on identifying the decisions and assumptions that later drive cost overruns, delays, and delivery failures, and address them early, while change is still possible. My experience includes direct responsibility for margin, cash flow, client outcomes, and live execution across multiple businesses and project types.
Known for operating calmly under pressure, making uncomfortable decisions early, and turning ambiguous situations into clarity.
