People who have been in your seat.
H² was founded on a simple observation: most operational problems are not caused by a lack of effort. They are caused by a lack of clarity, and by nobody staying long enough to make the fix stick.
Founder-led, and hands-on.
We don’t advise from a distance. H² is run by people who are still practitioners, in the review, on the floor and on the stage, doing the same work we help our clients deliver.
That is the whole idea behind H²: when you work with us, you get the founders and their experience directly, not a brand trading on a reputation earned years ago.
Two practitioners. One standard.
Between them, our founders have delivered inside Rolls-Royce, Bosch, Philips, JLR and Epicor. We operate from the inside, not the outside.
Haidar leads H²’s programme and delivery. Over a decade managing mission-critical programmes across aerospace, defence, automotive and medical devices, most recently at Rolls-Royce, where he stood up MRO capability at the Bristol facility and led major contract negotiations. At Philips Respironics he drove EU MDR compliance through Brexit; at JAE he took connectors from prototype to mass production. His approach: understand the real problem first, then stay until the fix is working.
Marta leads H²’s engineering and operations. An industrial engineer (MEng, University of Minho) who has spent over a decade making manufacturers run better. During COVID-19, as Lead Production Engineer at STI, she directed the build of 11,750 Penlon ventilators in 11 weeks for the NHS. At Epicor she delivered Agile ERP implementations; at Bosch she led quality and production engineering. She pairs that with deep Microsoft-stack expertise (M365, SharePoint, Power Platform and Power BI), turning clean data into tools teams actually use.
Plus Tier 1, 2 and 3 suppliers across aerospace, automotive and defence supply chains.

What we believe in.
Four principles that shape every engagement we take on.
Embedded, not external
We work with your teams, not at arm’s length. That is how we find real issues and make the right changes stick.
Honest before agreeable
We tell you what we actually find. If we are not the right fit, we will say so in the first call.
Outcomes, not outputs
We measure success by the results you achieve, not the number of documents we produce.
Knowledge transfer built in
We leave every business stronger than we found it. Capability stays with you.
