What I Do

Four core disciplines that underpin every campaign, strategy, and growth programme I build.

01

Demand Generation & Pipeline

Building full-funnel demand programmes that fill pipelines with qualified opportunities, not just leads. Every tactic is tied back to revenue.

  • ABM Strategy & Execution
  • Inbound & Outbound Programmes
  • Lead Scoring & Qualification
  • Pipeline Acceleration

02

Global Go-to-Market Strategy

Crafting GTM strategies across multiple regions, translating brand vision into locally-resonant, market-ready campaigns that land.

  • Regional Campaign Localisation
  • Partner & Channel Marketing
  • Product Launch Playbooks
  • Sales Enablement Alignment

03

Data-Led Marketing Operations

Bridging creative instinct and analytical rigour, from stack architecture to attribution modelling, dashboards to decisions.

  • Marketing Attribution & Reporting
  • CRM & MAP Strategy
  • Budget Optimisation
  • Team Building & Leadership

04

Agentic AI & Marketing Automation

AI-first by default, not as an experiment. I design and run agentic workflows that handle research, reporting, and campaign build, so strategy time goes further and output ships faster.

  • Agentic Workflow Design
  • AI-Assisted Campaign Build
  • Automated Reporting & Dashboards
  • AI Tooling Strategy & Adoption

The Marketer
Behind the Numbers

I'm a B2B marketing leader with 20+ years building demand generation engines that compound over time. I've worked with high-growth scale-ups and global enterprise brands across the UK, Europe, and North America, always in pursuit of marketing that earns its seat at the revenue table.

My background is equal parts strategic and executional. I believe the best marketing leaders can sketch a GTM strategy in the morning and interrogate attribution data in the afternoon, and I've spent my career doing exactly that.

"I build marketing functions that become competitive advantages: where demand gen is predictable, campaigns are measurable, and the team is the best it's ever been."

Outside of work I'm building a 30k+ social media brand, attempting to keep a garden alive, and planning the next trip wherever the flight deals take me. Based in Hampshire and currently taking on new freelance and consulting projects.

Community & Volunteering

Giving back has always been part of how I work. Alongside my career I've invested time in causes that matter: education, professional development, community welfare, and mental health.

  • School Governor Supporting school leadership, strategy, and accountability in the local community.
  • CIM Hampshire, Vice Chair Helping shape events, programmes, and professional development for marketers across the region.
  • Volunteer, Homeless Café Regular volunteer providing meals and companionship for those experiencing homelessness.
  • Mental Health Community Advocate Active voice and supporter in mental health awareness communities online and locally.
