Fractional CPO & CCO · AdTech · Gaming · Digital Media
Growth-stage companies need the right leadership at the right moment. amp/d gives founders and scale-ups immediate access to senior commercial and product expertise — on a fractional basis, accountable for outcomes, without the cost or delay of a full-time hire.
Let's talk
Hiring a full-time CPO or CCO takes months and costs a fortune — before they’ve done a single useful thing.
Markets move faster than a recruitment process. By the time you’ve made an offer, the window may have already closed.
Junior leaders learn on your time and your budget. You need someone who’s already made these decisions, at scale, in your sector.
Agencies give you bodies. Advisors give you opinions. Neither gives you someone who’s responsible for the outcome.
Adam identifies problems and opportunities fast, then gets on with solving them. When our user base started shrinking in key markets, he came to me with BBM AuDEX — an audience extension ad network he’d worked up as the solution. Then he actually delivered it. Led the whole thing: RFP process, DMP selection, AdTech partnerships, engineering, sales. That product kept our revenue stable when we really needed it. He spots the gap, builds the solution, ships it, makes money. Gets it done. I heartily recommend him.
Matthew Talbot
CEO, BBM / BlackBerry
Over two years working with Adam, I saw three things that set him apart: Strategic vision that created an entirely new gaming division — successfully acquired by a European leader in gaming advertising. Deep commercial expertise across the UK media landscape, built on years of relationships and genuine market knowledge. And leadership presence — someone who never avoided the hard conversations and consistently chose the hard right over the easy wrong. I’d recommend Adam to any team that needs those qualities.

01
Understand the market, the gaps, and what your business is genuinely capable of right now.
02
Test the assumptions fast. Kill the bad ones before they cost you a quarter.
03
Construct the product, commercial, or go-to-market motion that fits the real opportunity.
04
Take it to market with a plan that accounts for how deals and partnerships really happen. Not how we want them to.
05
Measure what matters, fix what doesn’t work, and compound what does.
You know the product. You need someone to own the commercial or product trajectory while you focus on building the company. Immediate impact, flexible terms.
You’ve found product-market fit and need to move fast. The gap between where you are and where you need to be is a leadership problem, not a strategy problem.
You’re entering a new market, launching a new vertical, or restructuring a commercial function. You need proven leadership for a defined outcome — not a permanent headcount.

amp/d exists because the companies that need this kind of leadership most are most at risk if they get the hiring wrong. Fractional isn’t a compromise — done right, it’s faster, sharper, and more accountable than a permanent role.
