PANDORA STREET CONSULTING
Turn operational overwhelm into structured, scalable systems.
From launch to scale, I design and build the operational systems behind consistent, sustainable growth.
Where I step in
Below are the areas where I add practical value—supporting launches, resolving operational bottlenecks, and guiding client work that needs experienced oversight
-
Launching something new
When you’re building from the ground up, I create a strong foundation for your launch — with the brand, website, and operational structure needed to get up and running with clarity.
Includes:
Brand development, website design and launch, systems setup, workflow design, and operational infrastructure -
Fixing messy operations
When things feel chaotic or inefficient, I bring order to the day-to-day by streamlining workflows, clarifying roles, and creating better ways for work to move across your team.
Includes:
Workflow audits, systems cleanup, process redesign, role clarity, and operational alignment -
Strategic support (without a full-time hire)
When you need experienced operational leadership, I add senior-level thinking and follow-through without a full-time role — helping guide decisions, prioritize effectively, and keep things moving.
Includes:
Ongoing advisory, systems planning, decision support, prioritization, and operational strategy -
Stabilizing accounts & projects
When things are complex, sensitive, or off track, I provide steady, experienced leadership to manage communication and ensure delivery stays aligned and on track.
Includes:
Account leadership, project oversight, stakeholder alignment and communication, issue management, and delivery support
Recent work

About
Meredith Murray, Founder
Pandora Street Consulting is a boutique consultancy based in Austin, Texas. I help businesses and mission-driven organizations bring structure to complex work by designing and building the systems, workflows, and infrastructure they rely on every day.
I work at the intersection of strategy and execution, partnering with founders and teams to launch new businesses, improve existing operations, and bring clarity to complex, multi-stakeholder environments. Whether I’m building from the ground up or stepping into in-flight work, I focus on creating structure, reducing friction, and helping work move forward.
I graduated magna cum laude from Georgetown University and earned an Executive MBA from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Prior to founding Pandora Street Consulting, I spent over twelve years working across high-stakes, fast-moving environments, including as a Chief of Staff and strategic consultant at a Fortune 50 company and Director at a Global 100 private cloud organization, helping organizations navigate complexity and execute effectively. I bring a systems-level approach to business operations, organizational build-out, tool and platform implementation, workflow design, global program management, digital marketing, and executive-level communications. I am also a certified mediator and can support organizational conflict resolution with a neutral, solutions-focused approach that fosters alignment and long-term collaboration.
I’m known for building trust quickly, communicating with clarity, and bringing structure to ambiguity. I do my best work where strategy, systems, and execution need to come together.

We were initially skeptical that an outside consultant could quickly step in to help manage these complex projects, and so were delighted when she not only jumped in with confidence, but also improved our internal systems. She worked well with our clients and kept the entire team on track. Ultimately, Meredith helped us save these important relationships."
