James Pardy

I'm a freelance consultant based in Paris who works with businesses, governments, and international organisations.

I help structure new businesses, build better systems for established organisations, and translate complex information for governments.

Previously, I worked in strategy, operations, and policy roles across government, universities, and international organisations.

I also help creatives reach clients, shape projects and deliver their work.

I have a passion for food, wine and hospitality, and spent a year working as a boulanger de nuit.

I'm Australian, have lived in France since 2023, and work in English and French.
