How To Get Your Business Back
Let’s be honest – running a business today, especially in the financial services sector, feels like spinning plates while walking a tightrope. Regulations are piling up, systems are ageing, processes are clunky, and somehow, the day-to-day firefighting has become the job. Sound familiar?
That’s exactly why we created Elevate Business Transformation – a proud Isle of Man based consultancy that helps businesses like yours get back to what they do best: delivering value to clients, growing sustainably, and staying ahead of the curve.
We’ve Been There – And We Transformed Our Way Out
We’re Steven Quayle and Ben Wilde, the co-founders of Elevate Business Transformation. We didn’t just read about these challenges in a textbook – we lived them. Together, we oversaw the architecture and built the first fully digital, profitable, and compliant bank on the Isle of Man, and first new bank in over 35 years. That experience taught us so many things that you cannot learn in a book, but most importantly it showed us how to cut through the distractions and focus on what really matters.
“Transformation isn’t about replacing everything. It’s about understanding what’s holding you back and fixing it at the root.”
Steven Quayle Co-Founder – Chartered Accountant,
Experienced Finance, Operations Director & MLRO
What’s Really Holding You Back?
It’s not always the big things. Often, it’s the small changes that should be simple – but aren’t. A new regulatory or compliance requirement. A minor process tweak. A key person off sick. Suddenly, your leadership team is bogged down in admin, and your projects are stalling.
That’s not a failure of your people; it’s a failure of your ecosystem.
At Elevate, we focus on the root cause, not the symptoms. We help you build an environment where small changes don’t derail your entire operation. Where your systems, processes and people are aligned to support continuous improvement, not constant firefighting.
Complementing, Not Competing with Digital Transformation
Let’s clear something up: we’re not here to replace your digital transformation strategy. In fact, we’re here to make it work more efficiently.
Digital transformation is essential – but it often assumes your business is already set up to handle change. That’s where we come in. Often, an inefficient process is ported to become a digital inefficient process.
Elevate Business Transformation bridges the gap between business strategy and digital transformation at the executive leadership level. This means we will work with your c-suite to form one clear strategy with a uniform way of working and transparent target operating model. We help you clear the path so your digital initiatives can deliver and unlock the value they promise.
“Innovation isn’t just about new technology – it’s about making sure the business is ready to use it effectively.”
Ben Wilde Co-Founder – Experienced Head of Innovations,
Digital Architect, Product Owner and Business Analyst
Start Small, Think Big
We’ll help you answer the big questions:
Transformation doesn’t have to mean a massive, expensive overhaul. Sometimes, all it takes is a fresh perspective. That’s why we offer a £2,000 one-day discovery workshop. It’s a low-risk, high-value way to identify your biggest opportunities and build a roadmap that works for your business.
- Do you know where your business is currently at?
- What does success look like?
- What does failure look like?
- And most importantly – how do we get you there?
- What’s really at stake for your business?
Why Elevate? Why Now?
Because the cost of doing nothing is rising. More resource spent on distractions. More missed opportunities. More stress. More risk. But success? That looks like:
- Improved performance & profitability
- Reduced costs
- Happier clients
- A healthier, more focused leadership team
- And yes – more time for life outside of work
We’re here to help you get your business back. To stop the distractions. To refocus on value. To build a business that’s fit for your future.

Who We Are

Steven Quayle
With 20 years of experience spanning finance, regulation and operations, I’ve built a career on transforming complex challenges into real-world solutions. Starting as a Chartered Accountant and lead auditor for banking clients, I’ve developed a deep understanding of financial reporting, risk management and compliance – essential building blocks for any successful business.
My work as Banking Director over the last 5-6 years has truly defined my career. I led the creation of the Isle of Man’s first fully digital corporate bank in over 25 years, an accomplishment that leveraged my entire skill set. Launching this innovative corporate bank was not only my proudest professional achievement, but also a transformative experience that reshaped my perspective on the power of digital solutions.
Having learned invaluable lessons from this journey, I’m now focused on helping businesses unlock their own potential. At Elevate, I bring a unique blend of financial acumen, operational expertise and regulatory insight to help clients navigate digital transformation with confidence. If you’re ready to challenge the status quo and embrace the future of business, we’re here to help you turn your vision into reality.

Ben Wilde
With over 20 years’ experience in the digital space, primarily within the banking sector, I’ve dedicated my career to driving meaningful transformation. My expertise lies in developing new digital banking products, managing complex change initiatives overseeing software development and optimizing infrastructure.
What sets me apart is my commitment to bringing clarity and realism to the table – especially when engaging with executive teams. I’m not afraid to deliver the unvarnished truth, even when it’s not what people want to hear. I believe that honesty and transparency are essential for creating solutions that truly work, rather than chasing trends or delivering short term fixes.
Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of leading large-scale initiatives, from launching an innovative digital corporate bank to modernizing critical infrastructure systems. These experiences have taught me the importance of balancing cutting-edge technology with practice, real world application – ensuring that the transformation is both impactful and sustainable for the business itself.
At Elevate, I bring my passion for meaningful change and a pragmatic approach to help businesses not only navigate but thrive in today’s fast-evolving digital landscape. For me, success is about aligning bold ideas with actionable strategy to empower your teams in delivering lasting results.
