Create and lead marketing and communications strategies—not simply manage others who do. Proven experience working directly with clients and stakeholders to shape strategic direction and define marketing plans. Ideally agency‑side experience, though exceptional client‑side candidates with significant strategic comms expertise will be considered. A confident communicator who can engage senior leaders, guide thinking, and turn strategy into action. Experience in brand strategy, branding, internal comms, marketing comms, advertising and digital.
