DealStruct helps B2B businesses review contracts, structure deals, prepare negotiations and manage commercial risk with senior-level expertise and technology-enabled delivery focused on business outcomes.
We provide contractor-level commercial capability with clearer outputs, faster turnaround and practical recommendations that help leadership teams make better decisions.
Built for businesses that need senior commercial support without the delay, cost or commitment of hiring permanent resource.
Defined scope, defined deliverables, defined fee — agreed up front in writing.
Day one starts inside a week of signature. No lengthy onboarding cycles.
Every engagement led by experienced commercial leadership — never staffed below.
DealStruct provides senior commercial judgement, structured outputs and practical recommendations across five service areas, built for B2B businesses where deals are high-value and commercial outcomes matter. Engagements can be scoped individually or combined inside a single delivery package.
Support for complex customer, supplier, partner and joint venture deals, including commercial structure, risk allocation, pricing logic, negotiation planning and governance preparation.
Practical review of contracts to identify commercial, financial, delivery and operational risks — and the protections that should sit against each.
Structured negotiation support to help businesses enter discussions with clear positions, defined risks and prepared trade-offs.
Support to improve contract performance, reduce leakage and create better visibility across obligations, risks and commercial actions.
Flexible support for overstretched commercial, procurement, legal, finance and delivery teams — adding senior capacity where it's needed most.
Four ways to engage DealStruct. Each is priced against the equivalent senior commercial contractor or interim, but built around fixed business outcomes, faster mobilisation and structured deliverables — value-based commercial delivery, not day-rate billing.
Fixed fee. Equivalent to 10 working days at £980 per day.
When you have one major deal, contract or negotiation that needs senior commercial support quickly.
A focused two-week package for urgent contract reviews, live negotiations, supplier issues, customer deals or commercial decisions that need clear, senior-level input.
Delivered within 10 working days using technology-enabled review methods, structured templates and modern delivery tools to provide faster, clearer outputs than traditional manual contractor support.
Based on up to 60 working days at £680 per day.
When you need senior commercial support across multiple deals, contracts or negotiations without hiring a full-time contractor.
A three-month embedded support package for businesses that need sustained commercial, contract, negotiation or governance support.
This package provides senior contractor-level commercial capability with a structured, output-led delivery model. Clients benefit from experienced commercial support, modern technology-enabled methods and reusable tools that improve speed, consistency and visibility.
When 50+ live contracts have become difficult to track, govern or commercially manage.
A technology-enabled review of a wider contract portfolio, designed for companies that need a clearer investment strategy view of commercial risk, obligations, renewal dates, revenue leakage and exposure.
Portfolio Analytics helps leadership teams understand where contractual risk, value leakage and commercial exposure sit across their contract base. Designed for companies that need visibility quickly without manually reviewing every contract from scratch.
When you need senior commercial input, governance and decision support — but not a full-time hire.
A flexible monthly senior commercial support package for leadership teams that need experienced commercial oversight without the cost or commitment of a permanent hire or full-time interim.
Fractional Director gives leadership teams access to senior commercial judgement on a flexible monthly basis. Designed for businesses that need experienced commercial oversight without the cost or commitment of a permanent hire or full-time interim.
Traditional contractors can be effective, but they can take time to onboard, may work manually and often provide capacity rather than structured outputs. DealStruct provides contractor-level experience with a more modern delivery model.
We do not replace internal teams. We help them move faster, reduce risk and make better commercial decisions.
Every DealStruct engagement is priced as a value-based business outcome rather than a day-rate billable. The senior commercial contractor or permanent hire alternative carries a £100k+ loaded annual cost, four-to-six months of recruitment lead time, and a binary investment strategy — full hire or no hire. DealStruct sits in the gap.

DealStruct works with corporate, scale-up and mid-market businesses across sectors where contracts are complex, deals are high-value and commercial decisions need senior, experienced input.
DealStruct is built on a track record of senior commercial leadership across major B2B and defence-sector programmes — locking in deal value, structuring joint ventures, leading negotiations and managing live contract portfolios at scale.
Composite voices from conversations with Heads of Commercial, Commercial Directors, CFOs and General Counsels across our target sectors. Representative of common buyer concerns — and the reasons businesses engage DealStruct.
The deal closes in eight weeks. The right hire takes six months. We needed something that could actually move in between.
We don't have an in-house commercial function on this scale. We needed outcome-led support, not bodies on chairs.
We were leaking margin across renewals nobody was tracking. The numbers told us — finding the cause was harder than fixing it.
Senior contractors cost a thousand pounds a day and want twelve weeks to onboard. The whole point is we don't have twelve weeks.
Our biggest commercial risk isn't the contracts we know about. It's the obligations buried in MSAs nobody has reviewed in three years.
Legal review tells us where the risk sits. It does not tell us what the commercial position should be on day one of negotiation.
We needed someone who had structured a joint venture before — not someone who would lead the project, but someone who had actually owned one.
DealStruct was created to give businesses access to senior commercial, contract and negotiation capability without the delay of permanent hiring or the limitations of traditional contractor models.
We support organisations dealing with complex contracts, supplier negotiations, customer deals, commercial risk and overstretched internal teams. Our work spans deal strategy, contract review, negotiation preparation, contract management, governance and commercial operations support.
Our approach combines hands-on commercial experience with structured methods, modern tools and practical delivery frameworks. The result is faster analysis, clearer recommendations and outputs that leadership teams can actually use.
Founder-led and built on more than a decade of front-line commercial, contract and pricing leadership across defence, engineering, technology and infrastructure programmes.
Whether you need a rapid contract review, negotiation support, portfolio analysis or embedded commercial delivery, DealStruct can help you move faster and make better commercial decisions.
