Advisory & Delivery

Make the next move count.

Senior advisory for growth, partnerships and delivery across sport and major events.

Complex opportunities call for more than a plan. Intrepid Fox Group brings senior leadership and the right specialist capability together to help organisations grow, transform and deliver work that matters.

We work across sport, major events, venues, destinations and related industries where commercial ambition, public interest and multiple stakeholders meet.

The opportunity

Built for work that crosses boundaries.

The most important priorities rarely belong to one department. A new market, event, venue, partnership or transformation can demand commercial strategy, brand thinking, government engagement, stakeholder alignment and hands-on execution at the same time.

Intrepid Fox Group helps clients frame the challenge, make sound decisions and mobilise the capabilities needed to act. We bring the right people around a defined mandate and stay focused on the outcome.

Capabilities

Four connected practices.

Growth & commercial strategy

Identify where value can be created and build the model to pursue it. This includes enterprise growth strategies, revenue diversification, rights and media propositions, sponsorship strategy, business development, investment cases and commercial negotiations.

Brands, audiences & partnerships

Develop stronger propositions for the people and partners an organisation needs to reach. This includes brand positioning, audience and fan development, customer experience, digital engagement, partnership strategy, sponsor propositions and activation planning.

Major events, venues & destinations

Connect ambitious projects to a credible commercial, community and stakeholder case. This includes event and venue strategy, destination positioning, bids, infrastructure and legacy cases, government engagement and major-project planning.

Transformation & market expansion

Help organisations establish new capabilities, enter markets and turn strategic decisions into action. This includes operating models, organisational change, Australian and Asia Pacific market development, local representation, partner identification and implementation leadership.

Sectors

Experience where the stakes are high and the stakeholders are many.

Sport
Governing bodies, leagues, clubs, emerging competitions and rights holders.
Major events
Owners, organisers, bid teams, host cities and delivery bodies.
Venues & destinations
Stadiums, precincts, tourism organisations and place-based projects.
Brands, media & entertainment
Sponsors, broadcasters, technology businesses and live-experience properties.
Government & capital
Agencies and investors working on growth, infrastructure and public-value opportunities.

Our work is designed for organisations that need commercial clarity, trusted stakeholder engagement and a practical path to delivery.

How we work

One accountable lead. The right team for the mandate.

Intrepid Fox Group begins with the problem and the outcome the client needs. A senior lead stays accountable for the engagement. We then draw on relevant independent specialists and delivery partners when the brief requires additional skills or capacity. Roles, responsibilities, confidentiality and commercial terms are agreed before work begins.

1

Define the mandate

Understand the objective, context, constraints, stakeholders, decision rights and measures of success.

2

Shape the response

Set a practical scope, the required expertise, milestones, deliverables and governance.

3

Assemble and mobilise

Bring together the people suited to the brief and integrate with the client's team.

4

Deliver and adapt

Work through decisions, execution and reporting with clear accountability for progress.

Engagements may be a defined strategic project, a retained advisory mandate, an interim or fractional leadership assignment, or a team assembled for a larger piece of work. The structure follows the challenge.

Typical mandates

Where clients bring us in.

  • Designing a growth strategy for a sporting body, league or rights holder.
  • Building a commercial proposition and taking it to sponsors, media or capital partners.
  • Developing an event, venue or infrastructure business case and aligning stakeholders behind it.
  • Helping an international brand or sporting organisation establish a presence in Australia.
  • Providing experienced leadership during a transition or a time-critical strategic project.
  • Coordinating specialist advice and execution across commercial, brand, government and operational workstreams.

Working with specialists

Capability assembled around the work.

Some mandates need a focused senior adviser. Others need expertise across several disciplines. Intrepid Fox Group can assemble a fit-for-purpose team of independent specialists and delivery partners, with a clear lead and a shared scope of work.

Each proposed team is confirmed for the mandate. We identify who will do the work, how decisions will be made and who is responsible for delivery.
