Jonathan Herps is a Sydney based businessman responsible for a portfolio of commercial and philanthropic activities. Jonathan is the founder and CEO of Scale Up Growth Partners which was recently shortlisted as one of the Top 10 Leadership Development Training/Coaching Companies in APAC 2020 by HR Tech Outlook.

About Jonathan Herps

5x CEO. 2x founder.

Two successful exits. Jonathan has 35+ years of senior leadership experience across Australia, Asia, and the Middle East. He built Scale Up OS because he lived the problem — and spent a decade packaging the solution.

After coaching 250+ founders and CEOs through the same challenges, Jonathan noticed the same failure modes repeating at every stage. The problem was never talent. It was always the operating system.

Scale Up OS packages that experience into 60+ playbooks, 120+ tools, and AI-accelerated delivery. His practice is deliberately capped at 30 clients so every founder gets his direct focus.

We start with an intensive sprint. Clarify your 3-year vision, install the most critical systems, and deliver early wins in revenue and profit.

Monthly 1:1 CEO Coaching

Private 90-minute strategy sessions focused on the decisions that change the trajectory of your business. Structured, direct, and confidential.

Monthly Peer Training & Q&A

90-minute group session with other founders in the program. Learn from peers who are navigating the same challenges.

AI-Accelerated Tools

Between sessions, the Scale Up OS AI engine keeps progress moving with playbooks, scorecards, and accountability tools. The work continues even when we’re not in the room.

Founders of Many Companies

Quarterly 90-Day Resets

Every 12 weeks, we reset focus with a clear execution plan. Review what worked, adjust course, and lock in the next quarter’s priorities.

60-Day Guarantee

Try it out. If it’s not right for you, exit with no further commitment.

Weekly Office Hours

Live Q&A every week so you’re never stuck between sessions. Bring your real problems. Leave with a clear next step.

The Scale Option

Your operations engine scales reliably without increasing your personal workload. The business grows. You don’t have to.

The Exit Option

Your business is positioned for a 10X valuation because it is a transferable asset, not a founder-dependent operation.

The Lifestyle Option

Achieve owner freedom while the business targets 2X cash and 3X profitability. Step back without the business stepping down.
