Simon Harwood

I’m a former Chief Strategy Officer and award-winning growth strategist with 20+ years’ experience helping businesses unlock growth, build stronger brands and navigate transformation. I’ve advised and worked with global brands including Nike, Cadbury, Expedia and McCain, while leading strategy, innovation and effectiveness functions in high-growth organisations.

I help founders and leadership teams sharpen strategy, accelerate growth, strengthen marketing effectiveness, scale organisations and prepare for major milestones such as fundraising, acquisitions or expansion. I’m particularly suited to consumer, media, creator economy, technology and marketing-led businesses where growth and brand are key drivers of value.
