Overview

I am an Interim and Fractional Marketing Director with over 20 years’ experience leading marketing strategy, transformation, and delivery across financial services, retail, and e-commerce.

I support organisations during periods of change — regulatory programmes, growth phases, leadership transitions, and complex delivery — providing experienced, hands-on marketing leadership with a strong focus on governance, performance, and customer outcomes.

Much of my work has been within highly regulated environments, where clarity, accuracy, and pace matter. I am comfortable operating at board and executive level, working across marketing, product, compliance, legal, and technology teams to translate strategy into compliant, effective execution at scale.
