Fractional CMO

CMO-level thinking. Without the full-time CMO.

Experience that goes beyond marketing

Jennifer's career has spanned Integrated Marketing, Product Marketing, Product Management, Field Marketing, Sales Enablement, Customer Experience, Events, Marketing Operations, Compliance and strategic programme management.

That breadth creates a different kind of marketing perspective.

Marketing isn't considered in isolation.

It's viewed in the context of the product, the customer, sales, operations, technology and, most importantly, the commercial objectives of the business.

Proven in complex, multi-national organisations

Jennifer has more than 25 years of experience transforming marketing from a tactical support function into a strategic commercial partner, aligning campaign planning, product marketing, sales enablement, communications and customer engagement around shared business objectives. Working across complex, multi-national organisations and international markets, she has led geographically dispersed teams and agency partners across EMEA, LATAM, APAC and North America, balancing global strategy with the distinct commercial, cultural and customer requirements of each region.

You get a senior marketing partner who can diagnose the challenge, establish the strategy, align the right people and help turn the plan into action.

THE RIGHT EXPERTISE.AT THE RIGHT MOMENT.

If your business needs senior marketing leadership but doesn't necessarily need another permanent executive, let's talk.
