Marketing automationwith a clearercommercial purpose.

I lead marketing automation across people, platforms and delivery. My focus is how customer signals become useful decisions, and how teams make those decisions consistently.

My point of view

Start with what the customer needs next.

A journey earns its place when it helps someone get value, make a decision or solve a problem. That is the standard I want automation to meet.

Relevance before volume

Use behaviour and context to decide whether a message is useful, including when to stay quiet.

Shared customer decisions

Give marketing, sales and product a clear way to coordinate the next step.

Ownership that holds

Name who can change the journey, approve an exception and answer for the outcome.

AI with a defined job

Set the decision, limits and evidence required before giving a system more autonomy.

From strategy to delivery

Make the next decision easier.

Find the friction

Look at where customers stall and where teams repeat work.

Design the working method

Agree the data, responsibilities and checks before choosing another tool.

Prove a useful first step

Test a bounded workflow with the people who will use it.

Expand on evidence

Review adoption, quality and effort before making a larger commitment.

Selected work

Experience behind the viewpoint.

Global campaign delivery

Led operations across regions, with strong service performance and positive stakeholder feedback.

A shared campaign workflow

Helped design a tool for briefing and review, with lower effort indicated by the planning model.

A repeatable webinar model

Established the process, training and ownership needed to put a new delivery model into use.

Testing across markets

Supported structured experiments to give teams evidence for their next campaign decisions.
