START BAY ENTERPRISEs

Start Bay Enterprises was founded by Mark Preston after stepping away from a long-standing executive role at a major international development charity. His vision? To support leaders and teams in the third sector during times of change and challenge.

Right now, many charity leaders are feeling stretched – questioning where the next phase of growth will come from or how to respond to the pace of change. Teams are tired, recruitment and retention are tough, and funding is tighter than ever.

Start Bay exists to help. We combine proven professional practice with fresh, creative solutions designed to reignite your team’s passion and deepen audience engagement.

Charity leaders care deeply – but as leadership and funding landscapes shift, even the most capable and well-resourced seek trusted, conviction-led peers to walk alongside them toward success.

That’s where Start Bay steps in.

Our expertise lies in providing collaborative, creative support for leaders – especially those in the charitable sector – to help unlock potential, drive growth, and inspire lasting impact.
