Über Travis

Interim Commercial Director | Revenue Growth, Pricing & Negotiation

I support founders, CEOs and leadership teams who need experienced, hands-on commercial leadership to stabilise performance, accelerate revenue and strengthen sales execution.

With 15+ years across enterprise sales, commercial leadership and general management, I step into complex environments where growth has stalled, margins are under pressure, or commercial structures need to be rebuilt. I work closely with leadership and frontline teams to diagnose issues quickly, reset commercial priorities and implement practical, measurable improvements.

My experience includes owning enterprise customer relationships, leading complex negotiations, improving pricing discipline and margin performance, and building scalable sales operating cadence (pipeline management, forecasting, KPIs). I’m comfortable working in ambiguous, high-pressure situations and integrating rapidly into existing teams to drive outcomes.

Typical engagements include revenue recovery, go-to-market planning and execution, sales process build-out, pricing optimisation, supplier and partner negotiations, and supporting founders during periods of change, turnaround or rapid growth.

My approach is pragmatic, collaborative and execution-focused, with a clear emphasis on delivering tangible commercial results within short engagement timeframes. I am available for short-term interim or fractional assignments, on-site or hybrid, and can mobilise quickly.
