I set up the operational foundation early-stage companies need.


Anna Stankiewicz

I work with leaders who've run out of bandwidth

Most engagements start the same way: something important isn't being looked after, or a gap opened up faster than expected.

I come in, figure out what's actually needed, and build it — the CRM, the ops process, the onboarding system, the documentation. I set things up properly and hand them over ready to run.

AI is part of how I work, but most business problems aren't AI problems. They're foundational and I use it where it genuinely helps.

What I'm not: a consultant who hands you a deck and disappears. What you get is a working solution and support throughout the process.

What it looks like in practice

Most of what I do starts with a messy reality: scattered data, broken processes, teams working around systems rather than with them. These are a few examples of what that looks like in practice, and what came out the other side.

What's your situation?

You probably have a reasonable idea of what's broken. The harder question is whether the person you bring in will see it the same way — without you having to explain it twice.

Six questions. Gives a clear name for where you are, and some honest thoughts on what it usually takes to move forward.

In their words

Anna is one of those rare people who just gets things done. She worked with me both at Metomic and the Operations Room, and in both contexts she came in, figured out what needed doing, and did it without hand-holding.

Bethany Ayers CEO, Metomic

Regardless what she is tasked with she had a miraculous way of not just getting the task done but going above and beyond to really set us up long term. [...] I could trust her in any situation, knowing her genuine care and initiative would get an amazing result.

Frances Mannion VP of Operations, Houst

She's the kind of person who identifies the real problem before you've finished explaining it then solves it. Sharp and has great instincts for what actually matters. I'd work with her again without hesitation.

Bethany Ayers CEO, Metomic

Anna's able to dissect and improve complex processes. What sets her apart is her proactive approach to challenges; she identifies issues before they escalate and swiftly presents solutions. Her contributions have not only streamlined operations but have also elevated the entire organisation.

How we work together

Most engagements start with a conversation. You tell me what's going on, even if you're still figuring it out, and we work out together whether there's a fit.

No packages or retainers. Some engagements are a few intensive weeks to get something off the ground. Others are a few days a week while something is being built. We work out what makes sense and adjust as we go.

Let's talk

Complex deployments, messy processes, and systems that don't quite seem to fit — if this resonates, feel free to reach out. I'm happy to talk through what you're dealing with.
