INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS ADVISOR

I'm the smart and quirky business guy who makes things happen.

I bring business experience to drive change, growth, and commercial results - and a unique energy borne from the belief that business is best when it's fun.

Since 2006, I've developed experience in multiple industries and at all stages from Start Up to Sell Up. More than 300 clients in Australia, Asia, Europe, and the UK (where I was based 2010-12) have benefited from my creative workplace training and energetic business coaching.

A portfolio entrepreneur, I also hold positions in a small number of fast-growth startups and established businesses.

I have the most fun working and coaching young, energetic business. Of course, there's a great energy in any business where revenue is climbing and the leaders are enjoying themselves.

Jacob Aldridge international business coach

More than 300 clients in Australia, Asia, Europe and the UK  have benefited from MY creative workplace training and energetic business coaching.

I've added value to international companies including HSBC, Macquarie Bank, and LJ Hooker, but my passion is supporting energetic young businesses to change the face of their industry.

As a Keynote Speaker, Workshop Facilitator, and MC, I'm regularly called upon to lead or support events on business around the world.

And! I once held a Guinness World Record for non-stop movie watching – and when not helping clients or the other businesses in which I've invested, you'll find me (and my beautiful wife and happy daughter) enjoying a local northside café, or pursuing my dream of sourcing the world’s finest Stracciatella gelati.
