Sam Ellis

Senior Leadership at Early Stage Start-ups in London, United Kingdom

As of Q4 24, I am deciding what comes next.

Whilst searching for a full-time C-Suite role at an early-stage start-up (late Series A to Series B onwards), I am delivering projects on a fractional basis for several start-ups and scale-ups.

Get in touch if you have any bright ideas.
