William Roberts Executive Coach and Advisor

Hi, I'm Will Roberts

I'm passionate about helping scale individuals, teams, and companies.

Throughout my career, I have worn many hats (Founder, CEO, Head of Marketing, VP of Product, Chief Revenue Officer), made a lot of mistakes, and had some notable wins as well.

I have a track record of successful ventures, including selling my startup Loyalty Bay to Perkbox. At Seatfrog, I played a key role as the VP of product, revolutionizing train travel for the 21st century. As the Chief Revenue Officer at Vorboss, London's fibre network for the most demanding businesses, I built, hired, and spearheaded the growth of all the go-to-market teams.

I am building:
- I Promis To: Your Ultimate Tool for Seamless OKR Tracking and Accountability

-  Maker Launchpad:  join a fast-growing community for entrepreneurs, connect with top-tier talent, and unlock growth opportunities. 

- Society Speaks: Join a new kind of public discussion platform where nuanced debate leads to better understanding and real policy solutions.

However, throughout all of this, the most important part of the puzzle for me has always been the people. It is also one of the parts that most frequently gets neglected.

Life can get extremely lonely and stressful at times. I  want to help you understand yourself better, scale to new heights and achieve your goals whatever they may be.

1:1 Coaching

Coaching is a structured process focused on enhancing your performance or personal development. I use Co-Active coaching due to its unique approach to the coach-client relationship. It is based on the principle that clients (you), are creative, resourceful, and whole, capable of finding your answers. This method involves the coach and client working in a dynamic partnership, where both parties actively engage in discovering solutions and creating strategies for personal and professional growth. The goal is not only to achieve specific outcomes but also to foster a deep sense of connection, empowerment, and accountability.

Advisory

Advisory Services are more specialised. They rely on my domain and industry expertise. As an adviser, I help you or your team overcome specific challenges and provide advice, guidance, recommendations, and solutions. This is very different from the coaching relationship where I help you solve your own problems. In my case, this typically focuses on startups, scaling challenges, goal setting, fundraising, Go-To-Market, product, and marketing strategy.

Testimonials

Working with Will, a highly adept and astute commercial leader, mentor, and coach, has been an invaluable experience. His profound expertise in building and scaling businesses is immediately apparent to anyone who has had the fortune to work alongside him. My journey with Will at Seatfrog, exploring the European market, and more recently at Vorboss, where he led the commercialisation of our business, has been both rewarding and enlightening.

One of the things that's really difficult about building a great SAAS or enterprise-sales business is that you have to juggle two different and sometimes incompatible things.

You have to have the vision to imagine how your product and business could work when it's a hundred times the size and has a hundred times as many customers. And you have to have the persistence and professionalism to talk to potential clients, scale back their expectations to what you can build now, and bring them on board so that you can demonstrate that the business is making real progress from deck-and-a-dream status to reality.

I have known Will for a few years now, as a coworker, line manager and more recently as someone helping others to develop their leadership skills. I have always felt very comfortable discussing any topic with Will, he always tries to give you different perspectives without pushing for a specific point of view. Conversations are open and he will take time to understand your perspective too and add his contributions where they will be most useful. I highly recommend using his services

Will is a highly empathetic, driven product leader with a broad range of expertise, allowing him to identify and drive growth from many different angles. In my time working with Will he helped us expand our product offering to diversify away from a single offering helping us increase the value of our customers and go further upstream to acquire and convert users. Will's background as a founder, product leader and most recently commercial leader compliment his people-first mindset helping to shape and build teams that are set up for success.

I owe a lot to Will's guidance, coaching, and leadership. His base of knowledge across the disciplines required to not only build, but also scale, and maintain a business is vast.

From day one of working with Will he was supportive and great to work with, but he also always took the time to add guidance and coaching into the mix. This way of working means that Will provides autonomy and space to learn with the understanding that you can turn to him for the right guidance at the points you need it most.

Highly recommend spending time with Will if you are looking to progress your personal development as a leader, or if you need advice in starting/scaling a business venture.
