About me
Intro
I help organisations turn marketing into a driver of measurable business value and revenue growth. As a Chief Marketing Officer and marketing transformation leader, I step in when things need to change: repositioning, growth acceleration, or transformation where marketing, sales, product, data and technology need to operate as one system together. My focus is always the same: what creates real value for customers, and how do we build the system that delivers it consistently. This means working across brand, digital, CRM, demand generation, marketing operations and marketing automation, in close alignment with commercial, technology and data teams. Not managing a silo but connecting the full go-to-market model to drive pipeline and measurable ROI, with a strong grounding in customer experience and change management. In a previous role, this approach contributed to a +20% increase in qualified leads. AI and generative AI are now central to how I approach this. Not as a layer of tools, but as a shift in the underlying architecture: how content is created and discovered, how data flows and remains trustworthy, and how teams collaborate. My focus is on building both together: the right system, data strategy and operating model, and the organisation that can actually use it. This is not a marketing project. It is a company-level design decision. My experience spans B2B and B2B2C environments across hospitality, travel, healthcare technology and PropTech, from scale-ups to large international groups. I work at the intersection of AI strategy, MarTech, data, analytics, brand and revenue growth, with a strong focus on execution and measurable impact. My leadership style is clear and collaborative. I focus on setting priorities and creating the conditions for execution, while giving teams the autonomy, context and accountability they need to perform at their best. Strong organisations are built on clarity, trust and collective success. Known for building high-performing, multicultural teams and translating business ambition into clear go-to-market priorities and pragmatic operating models, where creativity and execution reinforce each other. Bicultural (British/French), fluent in both languages, and open to permanent Chief Marketing Officer and Marketing Director roles, as well as executive transition, interim and fractional mandates.
