Access challenging work, collaborate with exceptional peers, and build your consulting practice with the support you need to thrive.

The Independent Consultant Reality

You've built deep expertise and a strong reputation. You value the autonomy of independent consulting and choosing your clients, controlling your approach, and doing work that matters.

But independence comes with challenges: inconsistent pipeline, isolated problem-solving, carrying all business development costs yourself, and sometimes turning down opportunities that are too large or outside your specific expertise. You're excellent at serving clients, but the business side can pull you away from the work you love.

What We Look For

The Potenture Network brings together consultants who share our commitment to excellence and client impact. We look for:

Deep Expertise

You bring recognised depth in your domain, whether strategy, transformation, technology, operations, or specialised sectors. Clients seek you out for your knowledge and track record.

Evidence-Driven Approach

You ground recommendations in data, research, and proven frameworks. You're rigorous in analysis and transparent about assumptions and limitations.

Quality Outcomes Orientation

You measure success by whether clients achieve their goals, not by deliverables produced. You care about implementation and lasting impact, not just strategy documents.

Substantial Professional Experience

You've worked at senior levels, whether in Big 4, Tier 1 consulting, corporate C-suite roles, or building successful independent practices. You understand complex organisations and can navigate ambiguity.

Collaborative Mindset

You value knowledge sharing, see peer consultants as collaborators rather than competitors, and believe better outcomes come from collective expertise.

The Potenture Approach

The Potenture Network offers a different model, one that preserves your independence while providing the support, collaboration, and opportunities typically only available in larger firms.


We're a collaborative network of leading senior consultants who work together on complex client challenges while maintaining individual practices and authenticity. You remain independent, but you're no longer isolated. You gain access to curated opportunities, peer expertise, professional development, and a trusted community without sacrificing the autonomy that drew you to independent consulting.

This isn't about recruiting you to work for us. It's about creating an ecosystem where exceptional consultants elevate one another and deliver a greater impact for clients.

What Makes Potenture Different

We understand the pro's and con's of working solo, boutiques and big firms, we also understand the challenges of being an internal consultant. 
Rather than just plug the gaps in each of these models we sought to create something new that values you, the client making a positive impact.
We have also considered the more human side of consulting, what our client really need from us to have the confidence to make change and what it takes to thrive in an industry that can be demanding if you don't know what's important and how to influence.
Note Boutiques can vary greatly in levels of sophistication from very basic and more recruitment orientated to having a comprehensive approach, it is highly variable in our experience. Many people that work in and own boutiques overcome this variability by working with Potenture.

We Are Changing The Industry

Potenture Consultant Collective is a dynamic professional network designed specifically for expert consultants who believe in the power of collaborative growth and mutual support.

Multiplying Your Impact: Through Community

The Potenture Consultant Community breaks the traditional consulting mold by creating a third path beyond solo practice and large firms.  Unlike transactional networks or talent marketplaces, we're building a true professional ecosystem where consultants retain their independence while accessing the collective strength of a diverse community.  Our platform strategically connects experienced consultants across industries, enabling members to share experience, multiply opportunities, and accelerate professional development through structured peer learning.  The result? Consultants who deliver more innovative solutions, scale their practices more effectively, and maintain better work-life balance than either solo practitioners or corporate consultants.

Strength in Numbers: Why Connected Consultants Thrive

Consulting is a serious career that demands the right support network. 
While consulting offers tremendous rewards, it also presents unique challenges that can be difficult to navigate in isolation. Each consulting model, whether solo, boutique, or enterprise comes with its own pros and cons. By joining the Potenture collective you gain the critical support system needed to build a thriving consulting business while maintaining your independence and authenticity.

Reasons not to go it alone

  • Lack of support network: Solo consultants often face isolation and lack of the collaborative environment that can foster growth and innovation
  • Inconsistent work and income: As a solo consultant, work can be inconsistent leading to unstable income and financial success
  • Limited resources: Starting alone means you have to handle all aspects of the business from marketing to project delivery, which can be overwhelming
  • Higher risk: The failure rate for solo consultants and consultancy start ups is high, with about 20% failing in the first year and 50% after 5 years.
  • Lack of diverse experience: Working alone limits exposure to different industries and methodologies that larger firms can provide.
  • Credibility challenges: As a solo consultant, especially when starting out, it can be harder to establish credibility with potential clients

Why global firms might not be the answer

  • Limited autonomy: Structures and processes that can limit the range of experiences you have and the nature of the clients your work with
  • Narrow focus: Scope of roles can be narrow and limiting of broader skill development
  • Less hands on experience: Nature of roles can be more limited to research and analysis rather than client interaction
  • Slower skill development: 'Thin' nature of roles can limit experience in implementation and practical experience of how advice translates to outcomes
  • Potential for burnout: Demanding work schedules can lead to reduced work-life balance
  • Less flexibility: Work arrangements and client selection my be limited compared to working independently or in smaller firms
