Meet Simon Mogford - the North West's only fractional Chief Growth Officer.

After more than twenty years working inside owner-led businesses – start-ups, scale-ups, established creative agencies – I took some time out. Played some golf. Found some space to think about what I wanted to do next.

The thing I’d found most rewarding throughout my career was using the breadth of what I’d learned – across strategy, marketing, sales, account development, and leadership – to help business owners grow. Not just the business. Themselves.

What I kept seeing was the same gap: strategy, marketing, and sales treated as three separate problems. Nobody connecting them. 

That’s why I set up Natterjack – to give ambitious founders access to the breadth of experience and senior growth leadership that connects all three – a fractional Chief Growth Officer – supported by a team of specialists.

I’ll be honest – I was nervous. But I was also certain it was what I wanted to do.

It still is.

The name matters, too

The natterjack toad is rare and resilient – a small species that has thrived in the North West where we are located.

Unlike other toads, its feet aren’t fully webbed, so instead of hopping, it runs.

The natterjack toad has thrived by adapting to its environment and making the most of what makes it different. 

That’s the kind of growth we help you build.
