Advisory

Advisory

Consulting clarity for organisations navigating scale, complexity, and cross border growth. At 10th House, Advisory is a consulting practice focused on helping leadership teams design businesses that scale with control. We help businesses to diagnose operating constraints, strengthen governance, and design execution systems that enable sustainable growth, before solutions are deployed.

Advisory before action

Most organisations do not struggle due to lack of effort or ambition. They struggle because growth introduces complexity faster than systems evolve. Decisions become centralised, execution becomes person dependent, and leadership attention shifts from strategy to oversight.

Our advisory work begins by understanding how the organisation truly operates today. We identify where scale is creating friction, where governance is insufficient, and where execution relies too heavily on individuals rather than systems. From there, we help leadership design clarity, before recommending how that clarity should be executed.

Why firms choose 10th House

Our approach is to built the backend in a structured way, allowing leadership teams to focus on growth, innovation, and client outcomes. By redesigning how work is executed and governed, we help organisations strengthen delivery while maintaining control and consistency as they scale.

How we approach advisory

Our advisory approach is structured but not formulaic. We believe strong outcomes come from disciplined thinking applied to real operating contexts.

We begin by diagnosing how the organisation actually functions, not how it is described. We then design operating clarity across workflows, decision rights, governance, and systems. Where required, we define control frameworks that protect quality and reduce risk. Only after this foundation is established do we enable execution through appropriate models and capabilities.

This ensures recommendations are grounded in reality and designed to scale.

Execution discipline as a competitive advantage

As organisations grow, informal controls stop working. Quality becomes harder to maintain, risk exposure increases, and leadership involvement intensifies.

Our advisory work in quality and governance focuses on embedding discipline into execution itself. This includes SOP design, maker checker approver frameworks, audit readiness, and performance controls that operate consistently without constant supervision.

The objective is not bureaucracy, but reliability, ensuring standards are upheld regardless of scale or geography.

Advisory for cross border and global complexity

Global expansion introduces structural challenges that cannot be solved through location decisions alone. Differences in regulation, time zones, execution context, and governance expectations expose weaknesses in operating design.

Our cross border advisory helps organisations design global operating models that integrate execution seamlessly into the core business. We focus on governance, compliance alignment, decision clarity, and execution control, so global growth strengthens the organisation rather than fragmenting it.

Who our advisory is designed for

Our advisory practice is designed for organisations navigating growth, complexity, or structural change, particularly within accounting, financial services, regulated professional services, and growth-stage organisations.

This work is most relevant where execution strain is visible, governance needs strengthening, or expansion decisions carry long term implications.

Advisory that informs execution, never the other way around

Advisory at 10th House is intentionally solution neutral at the outset. We do not begin with predefined execution models or tools. Instead, we help leadership determine what needs to change and why.

Only after this clarity is established do we recommend how execution should be enabled, whether through operating redesign, technology systems, global capability models, or structured delivery support.

Clarity before complexity. Structure before scale.

Advisory is about helping leaders make informed structural decisions with confidence. At 10th House, we partner with organisations to design businesses that perform predictably, today and as they grow globally.
