About

Product leader with 7+ years building products from 0→1 and scaling beyond product–market fit.

I primarily work with early-stage and scale-up fintech and B2B SaaS companies in both hands-on and advisory roles, to help you reach your next milestone.

I run my own SaaS, UserSound, alongside working as a fractional product lead to keep me close to the real, day-to-day challenges product teams face.

Testimonials

Smith Forte

Head of Product, Acorns
(Prev. CPO Moneybox, Acorns, Varo Bank)

Bayley is an exceptional product operator who pairs sharp product judgment with a keen commercial instinct. Across both early-stage and scaling environments, I’ve watched him consistently transform ambiguity into clear direction, decisive execution, and measurable impact.

Mubarak Sumalia

Founder & CEO, NylaBank

Bayley helped us set up our product analytics ahead of launching NylaPay. He reviewed our full funnel, defined the right events to track, and coached the team on what actually matters, so we could make better decisions from day one.

Karl Koch

Design Engineer, DuckDuckGo

Bayley and I worked closely together at Moneybox and Quinn. What stood out the most was his ability to listen to customers and deeply understand the business context, to ship products that delivered a lot of value.

Nick Weeks

Founder, Luxxera

Bayley understood our business from top to bottom in minutes in one of our sessions. He easily dissected our businesses bottlenecks and helped us focus on the most important thing to move the needle.

Adam Lyth

CEO & Founder, Contic

In the early days of Contic Bayley helped coach our team on agile product development. He was patient, thorough and a pleasure to work with.

Beth Holloway

Co-founder & CEO, Feasibly

Whenever I walk away from a chat with Bayley, I actually have tactical advice that I can start executing right away. His experience has helped us onboard more clients with confidence.

Max Bull

Co-founder, Tendr

Bayley has the rare characteristic of a strong technical & product sense as well as the commercial acumen to understand what needs to drive the business. You’d be lucky to work with him!
