Calm, measured growth support, backed by real-world experience
At Eastbrook Growth Advisory, we exist to help business owners move forward with clarity, confidence, and structure — not overwhelm. We don’t do jargon. We don’t do ego. And we won’t tell you how to run your business.
Because the truth is: no one knows your business better than you do.
What we offer is an experienced, steady hand — someone to step back with you, challenge constructively, bring fresh perspective, and help shape a plan that actually works. Whether you're scaling up, strengthening your team, or preparing for exit, we’re here to guide, support, and advise — not to dominate.
About Tom
I'm Tom White, founder of Eastbrook Growth Advisory. Over the last 14+ years, I’ve led businesses through complex, hands-on growth journeys, not from the sidelines, but from the front.
I was instrumental in scaling a business from early-stage to £7M revenue, without external funding. That meant building out the commercial model, growing and managing an international team of over 150 people, improving systems, and delivering consistent, year-on-year profit margin growth — all while keeping the business lean, focused, and values-led. That journey culminated in a successful 8-figure private equity sale.
Since then, I’ve stayed close to the real world of business ownership. I acquired a separate business, one I still own today, which has deepened my understanding of the day-to-day realities of leadership, transformation, and creating long-term value in a business. I'm not just an advisor, I remain actively involved in building businesses and supporting teams.
What I bring to clients now is a calm, structured, and grounded approach to growth. No fluff, no ego — just practical support built around your goals, your team, and your pace.
How we work
Our role is to support you, not direct you. We’ll never pretend to know your business better than you, but we can help you see it differently, think more strategically, and turn ideas into action.
We also help businesses modernise in an increasingly fast-paced world, especially as AI and automation evolve rapidly. From smarter tools to more efficient workflows, we help you understand what’s worth adopting, what’s just hype, and how to bring innovation into your business without disruption. Modernisation doesn’t have to mean overwhelm, it just needs the right guidance.
While we’ve successfully supported businesses across many sectors, our most hands-on experience lies in SME B2B Services. That said, we’re industry-flexible, because great strategy and sustainable growth principles apply across most business types. What matters more is your mindset, ambition, and willingness to get stuck in.
We don’t work with everyone
We’re not here to take on every enquiry, we’re here to make a difference. That’s why we’ll always have an honest conversation first to assess whether we’re the right fit to support your business goals. If we can help, we’ll say so. If not, we’ll point you in the right direction.
This ensures every client we work with gets genuine focus, honest advice, and the clarity they need to move forward with confidence.
