About Us
A strategic partner
Grey Sky Consulting is founded on extensive experience in some of the UK’s most successful businesses and public sector bodies. This experience, combined with our links with a wide range of other senior independent consultants allows us to provide our clients with a wide range of expertise through a single strategic partnership.
Delivering critical success
GreySky was formed in 2005 by James Saunby based on a career in the UK IT and telecoms sector. James introduced BT's first voice over internet service in the UK, helped Advantage West Midlands accelerate the availability of Broadband for small businesses throughout the West Midlands region, and has helped Sage (UK) to retain the market leadership of their accounting software products. This ability to deliver critical business results through clear understanding of market requirements now forms the basis of GreySky's core services.
Supporting business
One of GreySky's main focuses is in supporting small businesses to compete more effectively. Whether we are supporting large companies to develop and market products for their SME customers, working with business support agencies, or working directly with small businesses, we are committed to supporting the UK's small businesses.

Twitter, though seemed completely daft. But somehow, the idea of muttering into the unknown with no compulsion on anyone to listen is strangely appealing.
GreySky has two accounts; one for what the company is up to, and James’s (slightly)
