Aerospace & defence. Advisory & Execution.

LEYA is a privately held firm active in aerospace, defence, and the adjacent strategic domains, including dual-use technology and sovereign capability building. We work with a small number of organisations at a time, and in select cases, participate as a principal in commercial ventures.

Our work is built on senior operating experience: opening international markets, structuring capture strategies, and building the government and institutional relationships that decide procurement outcomes . We bring that perspective to every mandate.

What we do

Mandates.

Senior commercial leadership, without the permanent hire.

We take on the commercial function directly: embedding in your team to develop markets and build relationships, or running a specific cross-border capture from qualification through to award.

Strategy.

Competitive strategy, from experience earned in the market.

We advise on market entry, competitive positioning, and programme strategy, working with leadership to pursue and win high-value opportunities.

Procurement.

Acquisition support beyond the specification.

We advise sovereign procurement entities, prime contractors, and corporates on specific acquisition programmes where relationships and local knowledge are decisive.

We are not a traditional consulting firm. We do not produce frameworks, methodologies, or reports.

We bring hands-on experience, direct relationships, and one measure of success: the outcome of the mandate.

  • LEYA was built on a career spent executing complex international transactions, not advising on them from the outside. We know what it takes to sell, buy, and structure high-value deals across governments, institutions, and corporates.

    We work as an extension of our partners' teams, bringing the market access, relationships, and transactional experience needed to pursue opportunities that would otherwise stay out of reach.

  • Each engagement begins with a clear view of the desired outcome and an honest assessment of where we can add value. We do not take on mandates where our contribution would be marginal.

    Engagements are structured on a retained basis with performance-linked compensation. We succeed when the mandate succeeds.

  • LEYA works with a small group of organisations at any one time. Every mandate is led at senior level, without exception.
