Having worked closely with Roger for over four years, through some of the most challenging trading conditions I've experienced, I can speak first-hand about the value he brings to a business. His commercial judgement, operational experience and work ethic are exceptional. What sets Roger apart is his willingness to take ownership, make difficult decisions and see things through. He's not someone who simply advises on what needs doing; he rolls up his sleeves and makes things happen. Roger's contribution to our business has been invaluable, and he continues to support Saxon as a consultant, Non-Executive Director and Company Secretary. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to any business looking for experienced, practical and commercially minded leadership.

Roger joined Saxon Furniture as Operations Director and quickly became one of the most important people in the business. He brought structure, discipline and genuine commercial acumen to every part of the operation he touched. His ability to identify what needed to change, build the right team around him and then deliver results was impressive. He is direct, dependable and entirely trustworthy — qualities that matter enormously when a business is under pressure. I would recommend Roger without reservation.

I worked with Roger Little from 2005 to 2020, when I retired as CEO of Bravo Brands, and in those fifteen years he proved to be one of the most capable and commercially astute operational leaders I have come across. Whether taking ownership of a full P&L, rebuilding a supply chain or introducing Lean principles on the factory floor, Roger combines strategic vision with a very practical, hands-on approach. He grew export sales across Africa significantly, set up new branches and joint ventures in the region, and consistently improved efficiency, compliance and customer service. He builds trusted relationships with boards, suppliers and partners, and he inspires and develops high-performing teams. He is articulate, pragmatic and dependable, and he is just as comfortable leading at boardroom level as he is working alongside his teams. I would recommend Roger without hesitation to any organisation looking for a leader who can drive sustainable growth and operational excellence.

Roger has spent thirty years inside businesses — as a Chief Executive Officer, Managing Director, Operations & Production Director, General Manager and Logistics Executive — delivering change that sticks. He has worked directly with owners, boards and leadership teams, and takes personal accountability for outcomes.
If the situation is serious, let's talk.
Most engagements begin with a single confidential conversation. There is no obligation and no sales process — just a direct discussion about whether we can help.
