Who we are
Innovators in Action.
Once upon a time in a bustling city, a woman named Jacqui spent years climbing the corporate ladder in a large multinational company. Her days were filled with meetings, deadlines, and the relentless pursuit of targets. While she excelled in her roles, she felt increasingly stifled by the rigid structures and bureaucratic processes that overshadowed her creativity. Jacqui longed for a more dynamic environment where her innovative ideas could flourish.
One fateful day, after leaving a high-stakes meeting, Jacqui received an unexpected phone call from a former colleague. They had joined an innovative ingredients startup that was struggling to navigate their growth, and needed someone with Jacqui’s expertise in sustainability and B2B Marketing. Intrigued, Jacqui agreed to meet them, not fully realizing that this encounter would change her life.
As she stepped into the vibrant world of startups, Jacqui was immediately captivated by the energy and passion that filled the room. The teams she met were hungry for knowledge and eager to implement new strategies. Jacqui quickly recognized that her skills were not only valuable, but essential to the success of emerging businesses. She found herself invigorated by the challenge of helping them innovate, scale, and create meaningful connections with their audiences.
And so, High Rider Consulting was born. Encouraged by partners, peers, and friends, Jacqui leveraged her experience in sales, marketing, and sustainability to begin work with clients across the food, beverage, supplementation, and apparel value chains. She brings specialized expertise from across her network onto work where appropriate. She likes to make her clients feel just a little lighter. Maybe even inspired. Always seen and heard.
The boutique consultancy’s name, High Rider, is a translation of Jacqui’s Austrian last name. Giddy up!
