Strut Solutions | Lisa May
Lisa is the driving force behind Strut Solutions, a strategic partner to some of the most ambitious independent and design-led retail brands in the UK.
With over 25 years of experience across both corporate and founder-led retail, Lisa brings a rare dual perspective: she’s scaled global brands from the inside, and transformed independent ones from the outside. Her career spans leadership roles at Diesel, Jack Wills, and EILEEN FISHER, where she served as Head of European Brand.
Today, she channels that insight into supporting brands at a pivotal point of growth, typically £500k–£5m turnover. Who are ready to scale with intention, protect margin, and stay true to their creative vision.
Lisa doesn’t just hand over a plan and walk away. She embeds herself in the business, becoming a temporary but powerful extension of the team, bringing clarity, confidence, and commercial direction.
From refining product strategy and pricing to unblocking operations and guiding senior teams, her approach is always strategic, structured, and deeply practical.
Over the past 5 years, Strut Solutions has helped more than 50 founder-led brands to stabilise, refocus, and grow, with calm, consistent leadership at the helm.
