About me
I am a visionary marketing executive with 10 years’ experience in strategy, brand creation and multi-channel marketing. Working in organisations of various sizes and geographies, I have successfully taken new products to market, and restructured, repositioned and rebranded established products to deliver strong, long-term growth. My success lies in putting the customer at the heart and aligning their needs with commercial goals. I am currently the Chief Marketing Officer of an ambitious and fast-growing start up spanning the property, investment and events industries. Since October 2014, I have led the company rebrand; developed a digital marketing strategy and analytics; designed and delivered a fully responsive, transactional website; identified and led implementation of a CRM system to facilitate marketing and management of 800 rooms across multiple properties; established social and traditional media strategies to extend brand reach from hundreds to millions; and forged relationships with complementary consumer brands to establish added benefits for our members. I seek to be challenged and inspired by the weird and wonderful – it’s the spice to life. My passion lies in building brands that simplify the little things in life and have a positive impact on the big ones.
