Jonathan Corp is a senior strategy, capital allocation, and transformation operator with more than 20 years of experience working at the centre of decision-making in large, complex organisations.

His career spans global technology platforms, AI-enabled infrastructure, and regulated national infrastructure businesses, where he has held group-level responsibility for strategy, portfolio governance, capital prioritisation, and enterprise transformation. He has worked directly with boards, CEOs, and senior leadership teams during periods of structural disruption, regulatory constraint, market dislocation, and geopolitical risk.

Jonathan’s professional background combines top-tier strategy consulting with senior operating roles in public companies. Over time, his work has shifted decisively from advisory to ownership: leading group-wide strategic planning, setting portfolio invest / hold / exit logic, shaping capital allocation under constraint, and driving large-scale operating-model and cost-base resets. His experience includes major M&A integration, multi-year transformation programmes, and the governance of complex, politically exposed infrastructure assets.

A recurring theme in his work is the distinction between strategy as intent and strategy as an operating system. Jonathan focuses on the practical mechanisms that turn ambition into outcomes: decision rights, capital discipline, incentives, organisational structure, and execution rhythm. Much of his writing reflects this perspective, exploring why strategies fail in practice and how organisations can impose coherence when complexity, politics, and capital intensity collide.

The essays collected on this site draw on lived experience rather than theory. They cover topics including corporate finance and capital markets, portfolio strategy, technology and infrastructure economics, customer behaviour and adoption, organisational change, and leadership under pressure. While many examples come from technology, telecoms, and infrastructure, the underlying principles are deliberately cross-sector.

Jonathan writes to clarify his own thinking and to contribute to better decision-making in environments where mistakes are expensive and often irreversible. The views expressed here are personal and do not represent those of any current or former employer.
