Testimonials

"Warren Buffet says he looks for three qualities when hiring: integrity, intelligence and energy. Jake Niarchos ticks all the boxes. Jake brings not only energy to his work but he couples it with the intensity and rigour of a professional athlete. If you are working on a project together, be sure to do the tasks that are on you - because Jake will have done his, ahead of time, to a high level and he will want to ensure you are moving at the same pace . Although he always wants the tempo to be high and the outputs of quality, Jake is also able to reflect, to question, to challenge and crucially to be challenged. He takes the time to consider options and is always able to find intelligent approaches to challenging situations. A growing business is sometimes a hard place to be. The challenges don't come with an instruction manual, they don't come in a manageable order and they don't come at you when you expect them.  So you need people with you who will by their very nature get on and do the right thing, people who will take personal responsibility, people you can just trust.  I've worked with Jake in those companies and in those situations. I just trust him."

"Jake served as CEO of The School of Life at a key moment in our history. He brought enormous enthusiasm and positive energy to the workplace - and lifted our spirits and horizons. He consistently asked us to think of the bigger picture and of where we might be going, rather than where we were. His friendly demeanour and genuine interest in the well-being of his colleagues made him a very well-liked figure within the organization. Moreover, Jake was an excellent communicator, projecting confidence in the future and easily engaging with anyone he dealt with. Jake will contribute hugely to any organisation he joins."

Alain De Botton, Founder of the School Of Life

“His attitude is geared towards high performance and he delivers, consistently. A rare blend that is equally capable of successfully managing results, customers, partners, projects or people.”

Stuart Johnston, Managing Director of Ascential Events

“Having worked with Jake previously, he has bags of strategic experience and the mindset & people skills to get things done! I therefore asked him to help lead the exploration of European Growth initiatives. He very quickly worked to identify and quantify the potential market but also the associated strategy and investment required - helping the exec team to build a very practical 3 year strategy. Ultimately his work means the right people are bought into what will be a significant component of our growth plans. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed working with Jake and I’m sure we’ll work together in one form or another in the coming years!”

Olivier Mansard, VP Global Sales, Masternaut

“Jake joined us on a consulting basis, to build out our sales engine and to help us develop a selling culture in a business that had, until then, been focused on product. It’s difficult to overstate the impact he has had on the business in 6 months. From upskilling the team to implementing good practice, processes and methodologies and helping us hire our first Sales Director, he has overseen a step change in the way we work.”

Nader Alaghband, Chief Executive at Ampersand

“Jake headed up our Sky’s Alliances function, building relationships with key partners, inc. Dunnhumby & Facebook, in order to broaden the scope and appeal of our proposition. Jake's ability to build and sustain positive relationships with key stakeholders at a senior level is second to none, while carefully managing commercial relationships and negotiations. Jake was adept at the simple communication of complex ideas, and at motivating others to get on board and stay on board through complex projects.”

Liam Plowman, Propositions Director at Sky

 “I worked alongside Jake as a Sales Leader for several years. I was always impressed by his listening skills, genuine interest in customer needs, and his ability to go the extra mile. More recently I have been a customer to Jake, and experienced his commercial understanding and work ethic from another angle. Jake is a very strong people person, a good coach of others, and an experienced partner to new and existing customers.
