Hi, I'm Rich
I’m a product leader who’s spent the last 15+ years helping tech businesses figure out what to build and how to build it – without compromising quality or speed.
You'll find me leading product both in the boardroom and in workshops with fantastic product teams.
Some of the products I've led...






I’ve led product at every stage — from early experiments to IPOs and global rollouts. Most recently, I launched Worka.com, the world’s largest flexible workspace marketplace, and helped scale Just Eat Takeaway’s customer service platform to support over a billion orders a year.I like teams that move fast but think deeply. I believe good product work is 80% communication and context, and I’ve seen what happens when that’s missing. I enjoy the big messy questions: where are we going, why now, and what’s getting in the way?


I’ve worked as a product leader, fractional CPO, and founder coach.
Sometimes I help scale the roadmap.
Sometimes I help calm the chaos.
And sometimes I just get the right people talking.
Side Quests
A few things I’ve done outside the day job...

Speaking & Writing
I have also written and spoken extensively on Product Leadership, including guest lecturing at London Business School and speaking at Mind The Product and ProductTank events.I was a regular contributor to Smashing Magazine, .net magazine, and spoke about UX at the Future of Web Design conference.
Pause
A well-being app for women navigating menopause — combining 1:1 counselling, mindfulness coaching, and a supportive community.
Founded with my partner, who’s a qualified therapist, member of the BACP, Pause is currently in private beta.

Indie Games
I still code, and have made a number of Indie games.
Virus (below) is an atmospheric, story-driven, first-person adventure you are running to save your life. You'll need to navigate a post-apocalyptic ice plain, disabling communication beacons and collecting objects which help tell the story of your past.
Asteroids Blaster is an iOS take on Asteroids. Fast paced and loud, it's like having an 80s arcade game updated and on your phone!
