Our team
Lockridge is founder-led. Research, data and outreach support comes from part-time specialists working to one documented process, and the founder reviews every introduction before it is made.
Direction & relationships
Founder & Managing Director
Nick leads Lockridge’s strategy, partnerships, and client relationships. He works directly with providers to understand their capabilities and define the opportunities worth pursuing, and personally reviews every introduction before it is made.
Nick translates each client’s commercial priorities into a focused sourcing brief. He stays close to research and qualification, helps assess provider fit, and guides the relationships behind each engagement, from the initial conversation through feedback on the introduction.
How the work gets done
Nick leads every engagement. Specific parts of the research and outreach are handled by part-time specialists, and nothing reaches a client without Nick’s review.
Signals & context
Contract researchers and virtual assistants
Monitor dated public records (filings, awards, permits, postings), research the organizations behind each signal, and prepare short account briefs that separate what the evidence shows from what still needs confirming.
Data & tooling
Part-time data specialists
Maintain source monitoring, enrichment and deduplication, so every signal can be traced back to its public record.
First conversations
Virtual assistants
Handle first-touch emails, follow-up and scheduling with prospective buyers, working from scripts and criteria agreed with each client.
Verification
Supervised interns
Help verify requirements, timing and decision-makers, and document the evidence behind each potential introduction.
Before any introduction
Nick confirms the requirement, the timing and the fit against the criteria agreed with the client in writing. Support roles prepare the evidence; the decision to introduce is his.
A focused sourcing brief starts with a conversation.
