Who We Work With

Built for businesses that need results, not reports.

We work with CEOs, founders, private equity investors and leadership teams of ambitious, growing, complex or underperforming businesses — particularly founder-led, privately owned and PE-backed organisations.

Discuss Your Situation

Growth has outpaced the way your business operates.

Your strategy is clear, but execution isn't delivering.

Costs are increasing without corresponding improvements in performance.

Your management team is busy, but results are inconsistent.

You need senior operational leadership without making a permanent appointment.

The Practice

About Create 6S

Create 6S Ltd was founded by Ross Sissons, an experienced operations and transformation leader with a track record across complex businesses, operational recovery, organisational improvement and executive-level strategy execution. Ross brings practical experience working with leadership teams to improve performance, recover value, reduce costs, restore delivery and establish the structures and management disciplines businesses need to succeed. Create 6S is an independent specialist practice — not a large consultancy with hundreds of consultants. Every engagement is led personally, with direct accountability for outcomes.

"Understand the reality. Identify the causes. Agree the priorities. Execute with discipline."
