Business Doctors is delighted to announce that Steve Ennis has been named a winner at the National Mentoring Matters Awards 2026, recognising his outstanding contribution to mentoring UK business leaders.

Steve has been mentoring on the government-backed Help to Grow: Management Course for the past three years through the University of Worcester Business School, supporting small business owners to strengthen leadership, strategy and long-term growth.

Steve attended the awards ceremony in Central London alongside his mentee Richard Sadler, owner of CJC Aggregates & Landscaping Supplies, who nominated him for the award. In a remarkable outcome, both mentor and mentee were recognised as winners on the night, highlighting the strength and impact of their mentoring partnership.

The Help to Grow: Management Course has already supported more than 10,000 UK business owners, and the programme has recently received further backing, with the government confirming it will be extended for another three years.

Reflecting on the award, Steve said:

“Mentoring is one of the most rewarding things I do. Watching business owners gain confidence, develop their leadership skills and achieve real growth in their businesses is incredibly fulfilling.
Working with Richard has been a fantastic experience and I’m grateful for his nomination. The Help to Grow: Management Course is a brilliant initiative that is making a real difference to UK businesses.”

The next cohort of the Help to Grow: Management Course begins in April at the University of Worcester Business School.

Business owners interested in taking part can contact Steve Ennis or Laura Swain to learn more about joining the programme.

Jason Newington, a seasoned business leader with three decades of experience in operational strategy, financial management, and business transformation, has joined Business Doctors to support SMEs across London and the South East.

Jason’s move follows an exceptional 31-year career with FMC, where he most recently served as Chief Operating Officer. During his tenure, he played a pivotal role in growing the company from a single-title start-up into a leading multi-brand organisation. His experience spans launching new product lines, leading acquisitions, and driving operational and digital transformation – all of which now form the foundation of his work with small business clients.

“After an amazing journey with FMC, I wanted to apply everything I’ve learned in a more personal, hands-on way, working directly with the entrepreneurs and business owners who are the backbone of the UK economy,” Jason said.

At Business Doctors, Jason brings a refreshingly practical approach to growth and problem-solving. Whether it’s developing more accurate budgets, streamlining reporting, improving operational performance, or preparing a business for investment or exit, he helps leaders gain the clarity and confidence to make informed decisions.

Jason is also highly experienced in digital transformation, including AI implementation and IT and CRM strategy, and is passionate about helping businesses harness technology to drive sustainable growth.

He joins a growing national network of Business Doctors committed to offering “hands-on support” to SMEs, startups and solopreneurs.

“I’m here to help business owners feel less overwhelmed, more in control, and excited about where they’re going next,” Jason said.

Saumitra Kamat, a commercially driven strategist with a passion for people and purpose, has joined Business Doctors to support SME growth in the South East of England.

With over 25 years of experience in commercial leadership roles across multiple sectors, Saumitra has helped businesses scale, diversify, and navigate change, but it’s his belief in human-centred, values-led growth that now drives his next chapter.

“I’ve reached a stage in life where meaningful work, family and balance are more important than job titles,” Saumitra said. “Joining Business Doctors allows me to use everything I’ve learned to support entrepreneurs who are building businesses not just for profit, but for purpose.”

At Business Doctors, Saumitra helps small business owners and founders cut through the complexity of growth. Whether it’s clarifying their value proposition, developing a clear commercial strategy, or building scalable systems, his approach is always grounded in real-world practicality and delivered with empathy, honesty and encouragement.

Saumitra’s own professional journey has spanned fast-growing startups, global corporates and ambitious mid-sized firms, giving him a deep understanding of how to unlock growth at every stage. He specialises in aligning vision with execution, supporting strategic decision-making, and helping founders stay focused on what really matters.

He now joins a national network of Business Doctors committed to working side-by-side with SMEs, solopreneurs and startup leaders, offering hands-on support, not just advice.

“Business owners are under more pressure than ever,” Saumitra said. “I want to help them step back, take a breath, and move forward with clarity, not just as entrepreneurs, but as people.”

When he’s not working, Saumitra is deeply invested in his own learning and development, from skill diversification and adapting to industry shifts, to growing his network and staying informed. You’ll often find him tuning in to BBC Radio 4, exploring new ideas and perspectives to bring back to the businesses he supports.

Pat said: “I’m excited to bring my energy and experience into this new chapter, and to help your business write the next one.”

Business Doctors said: “We are delighted to welcome Pat Kennedy. His combination of deep operational experience and his passion for working with smaller firms aligns perfectly with our mission. We know his hands‑on, insight‑driven approach will bring significant value to business owners across Scotland.”

Business Doctors is delighted to announce the appointment of Alastair Stewart as its new Business Doctor for North Yorkshire. With over four decades of experience in sales, business development, and strategic leadership, Alastair will bring deep expertise and a fresh, hands‑on approach to supporting SMEs across the region.

A proven track record, now channelled into helping local business owners

Alastair joins the Business Doctors network after a long and varied career in which he has built, led and scaled teams and operations globally. He has driven revenue growth, negotiated and closed significant deals, and forged long‑standing client relationships in sectors ranging from retail analytics to data centres and network services.

Beyond the numbers, Alastair maintains a people-centric perspective, mentoring teams, cultivating confidence in individuals, and simplifying complex challenges so that leaders can act with clarity and conviction.

As he puts it:

“With over 40 years’ experience in sales and business development, I’ve led teams, grown revenues, and built strong relationships across industries from retail analytics to data centres and network services. I’ve had the privilege of working across EMEA, driving revenue growth, leading high-performing teams, and closing major deals.

But numbers only tell part of the story. What really drives me is helping people and businesses unlock their full potential. I’ve always believed in building trusted relationships, simplifying the complex, and making a real, lasting impact, whether that’s transforming a sales pipeline, guiding a leadership team, or mentoring individuals to grow in confidence and capability.

Now, as part of the Business Doctors team, I’m passionate about using everything I’ve learned to help business owners across North Yorkshire overcome their challenges and achieve their goals, without the jargon, just practical, down‑to‑earth support.”

In his role, Alastair will partner with business owners to assess their current challenges, sharpen strategic focus, and implement practical action plans in areas such as growth planning, commercial optimisation, team leadership, operations and resilience. His approach aligns strongly with Business Doctors’ philosophy of “getting on the pitch” alongside clients, not merely advising from the sidelines.

What Alastair hopes to bring to North Yorkshire SMEs

Practical, jargon-free support: Alastair’s priority is to translate strategy into action in a way that is clear, measurable, and sustainable.
Trusted, local presence: As someone embedded in the region, he understands the particular challenges and opportunities of Yorkshire businesses.
Hands-on collaboration: He views his role as a partner, walking clients through the journey rather than directing from afar.
Focus on capability building: Beyond solving immediate problems, he aims to leave every client in a stronger leadership position than when he joined.
Scalable growth and resilience: He’ll bring discipline, insights and structure to help SMEs grow in a controlled, resilient way even in uncertain times.

Founder’s welcome

Matt Levington, Co‑Founder and Managing Director of Business Doctors, expressed his enthusiasm about the appointment:

“We are thrilled to welcome Alastair into the Business Doctors family. His depth of experience, integrity and passion for helping businesses truly align with our mission. Alastair brings both the commercial mastery and the relational mindset that make a difference. I have no doubt that businesses across North Yorkshire will benefit greatly from having him as their trusted advisor.”
