WILFORD AUGUSTUS

Founder | Civic Leader & Former Mayor | Helping Businesses Scale & Governments Attract Investment | UK & International Market Access | Fractional CMO/CDO | Executive Leadership Coach

Helping businesses connect, set up, and scale in the UK and global markets, whilst supporting governments with international trade and FDI facilitation, I advise founders, investors, and public bodies worldwide on strategic growth.

As a dynamic and principled Founder, Civic Leader, and Former Mayor in England, I bring senior leadership experience from business, community, and elected office, with proven in-country expertise spanning the United Kingdom, the Nordics, Latin America, and the Caribbean.

With a decades-long career in global strategic communications, marketing, and digital leadership, supporting SMEs and multinationals alike, including EY, Kimberly Clark, and the United Nations, I now specialise in UK and international market access and executive leadership consultancy.

1) UK and International Market Access
🔹 In-Country Representation
🔹 Public Sector Advocacy

2) Executive Leadership
🔹Fractional Board Advisory
🔹Executive Leadership Coaching

I guide organisations not only on market entry and ongoing market access solutions, but also in navigating the wider civic, policy, and political factors that shape their success.

As a keynote speaker and panel contributor, I share insights on global strategic leadership, international growth strategies, and building trusted public-private partnerships that deliver impactful results.

As Mayor of Chesham, I harnessed the transformative power of strategic leadership, clear vision, and community involvement to deliver results. Chairing the Council, engaging with residents, and representing Chesham locally and internationally, I was equally at home in conversations with local communities and global diplomats.

Armed with deep local knowledge and a global perspective, I bring pragmatic solutions to some  of society’s most pressing challenges; solutions that can benefit communities in Britain, across the Commonwealth, and around the world.

Whether at a community event, a diplomatic roundtable, or a strategic consultation, I bring clarity, confidence, and collaboration across sectors and cross-party lines.

Passionate about building stronger businesses, smarter governments, and more prosperous communities, I invite you to be part of our movement. Together, we can shape a brighter future.
