What can I do for you
Jens advises government departments, their agencies and private‑sector partners on complex programmes across the defence, aerospace and built‑environment sectors. Much of his work involves supporting public‑sector bodies through major procurements, commercial structures and long‑term partnerships, ensuring that policy objectives, operational needs and value‑for‑money requirements are aligned. Jens also acts for private‑sector contractors, suppliers and investors navigating the demands of delivering high‑profile, tightly regulated projects. Beyond defence‑focused work, he has significant experience in PPP and built‑environment schemes, including the development, financing and operation of purpose‑built student accommodation. He guides clients from early project scoping to contract delivery, providing clear, practical advice and a collaborative, commercially grounded approach.
Supporting your ambitions
A recent example of his work is leading the legal advice to the Maritime and Coastguard Agency on UKSAR2G, the next‑generation UK search and rescue aviation programme. This was a highly complex, multi‑year procurement designed to deliver a modern, resilient and value‑for‑money service that meets the UK’s future operational needs. Jens supported the MCA through every stage - from early commercial strategy and market engagement to structuring the contract suite, managing risk allocation, and steering the project through a detailed negotiated process.
What do others say
"I am writing to thank you for accommodating our procurement negotiations over recent weeks. I’ve received very positive feedback from the Senior Responsible Owner for the Programme, who was delighted not only with how the negotiations themselves were conducted, but also with the highly professional settings in which they took place.
The blend of professionalism, collaboration, and shared purpose you helped us bring to these sessions is exactly what we are striving for, and I am pleased to hear that we achieved that balance exceptionally well."
What else should you know
I was born and raised in Sweden, which means I still believe that proper coffee should be strong enough to stand a spoon upright and that queueing is an Olympic‑level discipline. At home, my wife and I have four young children so most days involve a lively mix of diplomacy, logistics and crowd management that makes even the most complex government project feel straightforward. Life is busy, noisy and hugely entertaining, and it keeps me grounded, adaptable and well‑practised at finding solutions in unexpected places.
