Summary

I enable companies to stand out from the crowd, create sustainable competitive advantage and generate more business from both new and existing customers.

I am a Chartered Marketer with a highly successful and verifiable track record in senior marketing and sales roles working both client-side and agency-side.

Sectors in which I've developed specialist experience include: automotive (car, bike and parts retailing), property (residential and commercial), marketing and business consultancy, digital marketing, software, online and print media, promotional products and apparel.

I’ve extensive board-level and strategic marketing experience – yet possess a broad hands-on skill-set too! So I can often ‘deliver the work’ or use this know-how to effectively direct the efforts of a multi-discipline sales and marketing team.
