Robert Linehan, EMBA

I help small and medium‑sized businesses improve profitability, strengthen leadership, and introduce practical operational structure — without unnecessary complexity.

With over 20 years’ experience leading large, multi‑site operations and teams of 100+ people, I work hands‑on with business owners to solve real problems, not create reports that sit on shelves.

My Background

I have spent my career in Retail, Leisure and Gaming. This vast experience combined with my studies in Business Administration, Finance, Project Management and Human Resources gives me a well rounded perspective to build a bespoke roadmap for your business. I believe SME's are the lifeblood of the economy and I am passionate about helping them thrive and succeed in challenging times.  

Who I Work With

I work with small and medium-sized businesses that want practical improvements rather than theoretical advice. My focus is on understanding how your business actually operates and helping you make changes that deliver real-world results.

With experience across operations, finance, and business performance, I support owners and managers in gaining clarity, improving control, and building more resilient businesses. I believe advisory work should be collaborative, straightforward, and measurable.

My role is not to take over your business, but to work alongside you — challenging assumptions, identifying opportunities, and helping implement solutions that fit your goals and resources.
