Built for Founders —
By Founders Who’ve Done It
We've been in the seat. Now we sit next to you - with strategic expertise and hands-on operational support
Who We Are
Clifftop Partners is a founder-led advisory firm built to give founders the leverage, clarity, and strategic support you can only get from someone who’s been in the founder’s seat.
We bring hard-won experience from years in the arena — scaling, hiring, firing, fundraising, re-orging, and exiting. And we bring the pattern recognition and execution chops to help you get where you’re going faster, with less friction and fewer regrets.
We’re hands-on. Outcome-focused. Fiercely aligned.
This is strategy and execution support from people who’ve actually done it — not just talked about it.
What We Can Do
Hands-on, strategic and tactical support from proven, exited founders.
There are lots of consultants out there — but very few who’ve actually sat in the founder seat at scale and still want to roll up their sleeves.

Work With Us
We’re open, but selective.
We take on a limited number of clients each year.
That’s how we go deep, build trust, and deliver outcomes that matter.
If you’re a founder navigating growth, challenge, or change — or an investor working with founders — we’d love to hear from you.
