After leaving GSK in 2011, Tim was appointed as President to Zarbee's Naturals, a privately owned natural medicine business. His role up to 2013 was to help establish the Company's brand and quickly grow the newly formed business from $3 million to $18 million through innovative, science based, natural medicines.

In 2014, Tim set up his own business, StepChange Strategy, which aims to create shareholder value for startup and multinational consumer healthcare companies, by focusing on brand strategy, innovation and geographic expansion. Through a consulting role, Tim discovered Embrace Hearing, the leading online provider of premium digital hearing aids. In 2015, Tim acquired, and now runs, Embrace Hearing.
