What The Observatory Members Get
Built by Jeff Knight
Throughout my career I've noticed something.
The people who make the best decisions don't always know the most; they simply understand what matters.
I realised that those who enjoy their jobs most, do so because they are well connected.
I also realised that success comes from continual learning. It is knowing which signals to ignore.
It's Time You Joined
The Observatory is available for individuals, teams and multiple departments.
Individual Membership starts from £685 per person per year.
Team licences are also available.
If you'd like to see inside The Observatory, arrange a short conversation with Jeff. No hard sell. Just a chance to explore whether it's right for you or your team.
Those FAQs
Is there a fee for accessing The Observatory?
Yes, there is fee for this. Membership is provided on an annual basis and renewed each year. The fee will be discussed based on your needs. Just reach out. But to give you an idea, an individual membership would typically be £685 per annum.
Can I join now and pay later?
If budget planning is a challenge, don't let that stop you joining now. Let's have that conversation.
Is The Observatory just for lenders?
No. This brings together perspectives from those who work for lenders, brokers, fintechs, agencies and industry partners, giving members a broader view of the market.
How much time do I need to commit?
That's entirely up to you. Some members dip in for a few minutes each week, while others engage more deeply through content and sessions. The Observatory is designed to fit around your schedule.
Can my company join as a team?
Yes. Membership is available for individuals, teams and organisations, making it easy to share insight and learning across departments.
What happens if someone leaves our company?
Membership is not tied to named individuals. If someone leaves your organisation, access can be transferred to their replacement.
Can we add more people later?
Absolutely. Most organisations start with a small number of users before expanding access more widely.
Do I need to share data or sensitive information?
No. Participation is entirely optional. Any discussions are focused on learning, perspective and shared experience, not confidential information.
Can I have a free trial?
Rather than offering a trial, we start with a conversation and can show you exactly what's inside The Observatory, how it works and whether it's the right fit for you or your team.
