Revenue Advisory in Halifax
Sometimes the gap is not a hire, it is a missing layer of leadership and judgement. We do this for SMEs and scale-ups across Halifax and the wider Yorkshire, with on-the-ground knowledge of the Halifax commercial market.
Halifax's commercial identity is anchored by Lloyds Banking Group, whose Halifax brand and substantial Trinity Road operations centre remains one of the largest single private-sector employers in the region. The Piece Hall regeneration has lifted the town's national profile and created an ecosystem of creative, hospitality and digital businesses. A growing community of B2B SaaS, FinTech and digital services businesses sits in and around the town centre.

Halifax's commercial talent pool overlaps with Bradford, Huddersfield and the wider West Yorkshire market. Financial services and insurance commercial talent is well represented thanks to the Lloyds anchor. SaaS and GTM talent is thinner and typically recruited across the broader West Yorkshire travel-to-work area. The cost-of-living advantage relative to Leeds is meaningful and often decisive for mid-career commercial leaders.
Halifax station offers direct services to Leeds (40 min), Bradford (20 min) and Manchester Victoria (60 min). The M62 sits south of the town, putting Manchester within 50 minutes by car.

How we work
01
A two to four-week Strategic Revenue Audit. Interviews across leadership, sales, marketing and CS. Pipeline, forecast and CRM data review. Output is a written diagnostic with a prioritised set of interventions, not a generic playbook.
02
We translate the diagnostic into an operating-model design: structure, segmentation, role design, compensation, forecasting cadence, tooling decisions. Reviewed with the CEO and board before any change is made.
03
Working back from revenue targets, we model the headcount, ramp, attainment and hiring plan needed to deliver. This becomes the joined-up commercial plan against which decisions are made.
04
Where useful, an Evara fractional revenue leader steps in to run the change. Where the in-house team has capacity, we support from alongside. Either way the work gets done, not just recommended.
05
Monthly commercial reviews against the plan. Quarterly board pack. Annual re-plan. The advisory engagement winds down as the in-house function gets stronger; it is not designed to be permanent.
What you get
Why Evara
Local
On-the-ground in Yorkshire. We know the Halifax employer base, the talent pools and the comp norms first-hand, not from a database.
Operator-led
Every Evara partner has carried a number. Revenue Advisory engagements are run by people who have built and led commercial functions, not pure intermediaries.
Honest
If a hire is the wrong move for your stage in Halifax, we will say so. We would rather lose the fee than place a senior leader into a seat that will not work.
FAQs
Lloyds Banking Group's Halifax brand, with substantial operations and digital teams at Trinity Road. Lloyds anchors a meaningful share of the town's mid-level commercial talent supply.
For mid-level roles, yes, particularly when recruited across the wider West Yorkshire market. For senior SaaS or GTM Engineering roles, most employers recruit across Leeds, Bradford and Halifax as one catchment.
Typically 8-12% below Leeds at SDR and AE level, narrowing at Director and above. The local cost-of-living advantage often offsets the gap for relocating candidates.
Hybrid is the dominant pattern, with one to two days a week in office. Lloyds and other large employers have moved to permanent hybrid models, which sets the local norm.
A structured two to four-week diagnostic of the full revenue function: strategy, structure, process, comp, pipeline, forecast, tooling and people. Output is a written diagnostic with a prioritised set of interventions.
Most fractional CRO engagements run between 4 and 10 days per month. Heavier at the start to install the operating model, lighter once the cadence is in place.
