Chris Piper

Chris has built his career around helping business owners make one of the biggest decisions they’ll ever face – and getting it right.

As the founder of Barnsgate Solutions, Chris works exclusively with business owners, helping them navigate the journey from early preparation through to exit. His focus is on cutting through noise, identifying what really drives value, and ensuring deals progress with purpose rather than drift. Clients value his direct approach, commercial judgement, and ability to keep momentum in situations where others might stall.

Chris brings first-hand experience of building businesses, which shapes his practical, straight forward style. He understands the pressures owners face, not just financially, but personally, and believes good advice should simplify decisions, not complicate them. His role is to challenge where needed, steady the process when it matters, and ultimately help clients achieve outcomes they can move forward from with confidence.
