My expertise

Here's how I can help your business grow:

  • Demand generation and pipeline acceleration - developing full-funnel growth programmes across digital, content, events and partnerships that convert awareness into revenue

My competitive edge

Speed to meaningful impact.

Where others need 90 days to form a view, I deliver strategic clarity and measurable pipeline momentum from week one - drawing on 20+ years of senior B2B marketing leadership across enterprise and scale-up environments.

About me

I've spent 20+ years leading B2B marketing for technology businesses ranging from global enterprise to hyper-growth scale-ups. At SAP I ran large-scale demand generation programmes across multiple product lines, learning how to operate with rigour and at pace inside a complex organisation. At Mitie I led the marketing transformation of a major outsourced services business, developing the growth, digital and demand strategy in a highly competitive market.

The pull towards growth-stage businesses led me to roles at the likes of Feefo, Kyckr and Endersham to name a few - where I built marketing functions largely from the ground up, defined go-to-market strategy, and drove measurable commercial outcomes including 165% SQL growth and 8x MQL performance. These environments sharpened my instinct for what moves the needle when resources are finite and urgency is real.

I now work as a fractional Marketing Director through The Marketing Centre, helping ambitious SME leaders access the same quality of strategic marketing leadership that large businesses take for granted - without the overhead. My particular focus is on businesses that need to accelerate pipeline, sharpen their positioning, or build a marketing engine that scales.

Fun facts
  • I was born in Canada – hence the strange accent I still have!
  • I have a personal challenge to visit a new country every year and am on track with 58.
