Who we are

I’ve spent four decades working shoulder-to-shoulder with chief executives and senior leadership teams — helping them navigate crises, restructure cost bases, rethink strategy, and deliver results. I’ve supported the CEOs of Basell Europe, Boots Contract Manufacturing, BP Chemicals Europe, Johnson & Johnson Medical, Monsanto UK, Penguin, Perrier UK, Toshiba UK, and J. Walter Thompson, among others — often when the knife was at the neck and results were urgently needed.

My background spans economics, psychology, accountancy, and criminology. I’ve served as Finance Director of an international manufacturing group, Executive Chairman of a global tech firm, and global strategy advisor in Unilever. I’ve led 29 successful corporate turnarounds and advised leaders across more than 60 industries in 35 countries.

In parallel with my private sector work, I’ve helped local authorities, NHS Boards, and central government departments rethink how they allocate resources — bringing private-sector rigour to complex public challenges. I’ve also been invited to speak in cities across the world — including Brussels, Chicago, Geneva, Hamburg, Los Angeles, Madrid, Milan, Montreal, Oslo, Paris, Tehran, Venice, and Washington — as well as throughout the UK. My audiences have ranged from Prime Ministers and health professionals to business CEOs and public sector leaders.

I founded WAVE Trust in 1996 and have led its internationally recognised work — commended by WHO and UNICEF — on the primary prevention of adverse childhood experiences, violence, and social breakdown. For this, I was awarded the OBE by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

Today, I lead every Cameron engagement personally — offering clients not only the full weight of my strategic and operational experience, but also the insight of someone who has helped shape policy and organisational transformation on both the global and local stage.

Joining Cameron in 1985 from an award-winning print industry firm, Ita Walsh quickly advanced to become a director and later co-owner. She played a pivotal role in shaping corporate strategies and was an adept practitioner of Cameron’s Cogent profit improvement methodology, working in diverse international markets including Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, the Netherlands, Philippines, Switzerland, Thailand, and the USA.
She was renowned for her exceptional writing skills—evident in the impactful reports later produced for WAVE Trust and as the annual CEO message writer for one of the UK’s largest companies.
An experienced coach of Chief Executives and Boards, her insights on cross-cultural management have been featured in leading European management journals and national newspapers such as The Times and The Daily Telegraph.
Ita also co-founded WAVE Trust with George, dedicating the last 20 years of her career to protecting children and women from abuse.

A graduate of York University and a Chartered Management Accountant, Fraser Duncan joined Cameron after an earlier career at Unilever plc, where he worked alongside George Hosking.
At Cameron, Fraser was instrumental in implementing the firm’s ‘COGENT’ cost reduction and profit improvement technology.
After leaving Cameron, he advanced his career as Portfolio Finance Director and later as Chief Operating Officer at Nomura’s Principal Finance Group.
He subsequently joined Terra Firma Capital Partners—first as Finance Director, then as Managing Director—before transitioning to a role as an external advisor while launching several successful start-up ventures.

An Honours Physics graduate of Oxford University, with an MBA, Finn Jackson was a highly reliable and versatile member of Cameron’s core team, contributing across a broad spectrum of projects.
Following his tenure at Cameron, Finn served for a decade on the European Leadership Teams of two of the top three global accounts at EDS, where he led comprehensive, top-to-bottom strategic change initiatives.
Today, he is a respected coach, consultant, and author specializing in strategy and leadership during periods of change.
Finn has published influential works including The Escher Cycle (described as “a unified theory of business” and “a blueprint for winning any game your business chooses to play”) and The Churning, Inner Leadership. More details about his work can be found at finnjackson.com.
