You know construction like the back of your hand, but running a profitable building business is a whole different kind of blueprint. If you’re drowning in admin, spinning your wheels with inconsistent quoting, or struggling to find the right people, I hear you.
At SK Business Coaching, I partner with builders to help them reclaim their time, boost profits, and scale with confidence. Whether you’re leading a team of subcontractors or managing multiple projects, you need systems that support your growth, not slow it down.

At SK Business Coaching, I partner with builders to help them reclaim their time, boost profits, and scale with confidence. Whether you’re leading a team of subcontractors or managing multiple projects, you need systems that support your growth, not slow it down.
Unlike your average business coach, I specialise in working with tradies and builders who want more than survival, they want sustainable success.
As a chartered accountant turned coach, I know how to help builders gain clarity on job profitability, overheads, and long-term growth.
When we started working together, they were overloaded and under-structured. We fixed quoting, refined processes, and transformed the business into a high-functioning operation.
No two building businesses are the same. Your strategy is built around your unique goals, crew, and the type of work you want to be known for.
If you’re not seeing results in the first 90 days, I don’t stop. I keep working with you until you do.
We’re not about more hustle, we’re about working smarter.
This talented builder had the vision and the skill, but behind the scenes, things were far from smooth. With no quoting system, inconsistent profits, and zero time for strategic planning, they were stuck in a reactive cycle.
Here’s how we turned it around:
✔ Rolled out a clear quoting and margin system
✔ Introduced job tracking that showed true profitability
✔ Systemised business workflows so things didn’t fall through the cracks
✔ Built a hiring and leadership roadmap to scale sustainably
Now, Country to Coast Projects is not only profitable, they’re operating with confidence and clarity.

It starts with a free initial consultation where we’ll dive into your goals, challenges, and what you want to achieve. This session helps me understand your needs and recommend the coaching approach that will deliver the most impact. Whether you’re focused on improving cash flow, scaling your business, or freeing up more of your time, I’ll guide you toward the right solution.
Each 1:1 coaching session is a focused, one-hour deep dive into your business. I’ll provide clear, actionable advice based on your progress and priorities. Together, we’ll set measurable goals and break them down into achievable steps. You’ll leave each session with a plan of action that addresses your biggest pain points and moves you closer to your business goals.
Progress in coaching is measured using both qualitative and quantitative methods depending on the nature of your objectives. We set clear, measurable goals at the beginning of the coaching relationship, and use regular check-ins, feedback sessions, and assessments to track your growth. Additionally, reflective practices and client feedback play a crucial role in evaluating progress and adjusting coaching strategies as needed.
Business coaching can cost anywhere between $1K and $5K per month, depending on several factors including business complexity and frequency of meetings. This includes one-on-one coaching, financial reviews, unlimited support, accountability, business growth tools, and more.
