how are we going to work together?

use me however you need - my ways of working depend entirely on your goals.

From fractional brand lead, to campaign work and high-impact sprints, consultancy to cultural and creative workshops:

ways of working:

fractional brand leadership:

senior brand direction without the full-time hire.

For brands that need leadership, momentum and energy - without hiring full-time. I work closely with founders and teams to define brand direction, sharpen positioning and ensure creative and commercial efforts stay aligned. This is hands-on, accountable leadership, not arm’s-length consulting.

Includes:

brand strategy + annual/ quarterly planning
positioning, messaging and creative direction
leading internal teams and external partners
channel alignment across retail, DTC and campaigns
clear priorities, faster decisions, less noise

Engagement style:

Ongoing partnership, typically ~2 days per week.

culture and creative workshops:

better work starts with how you show up.

These workshops are designed to unlock creative thinking and build healthier ways of working.

They’re practical, energising and rooted in real-world brand challenges - not abstract theory.

Formats include:

Blue-sky creative ideation
Brand and campaign whiteboarding
Team alignment and reset sessions
Looking at first principles

Culture, built in:

Approaching work with passion and ownership
Building momentum without burnout
Growth-oriented thinking that’s sustainable
Helping people love their role and the work they’re doing

Specialist workshop: Grief & Work

Grief exists in every workplace.

It’s just rarely acknowledged. Due to first hand experience this workshop allows for a thoughtful, structured space to explore how grief shows up at work, how it impacts energy, focus and creativity, and how teams can respond rather than avoid.

Handled well, this isn’t a weakness - it’s a quiet superpower. Trust me.

What this workshop explores:

Understanding grief beyond bereavement (change, loss, identity, burnout)
How unacknowledged grief shows up in teams and culture
Turning the pain into power. Grievers see life differently.
Supporting one another while still moving forward.

The aim:
Not to fix or therapise - but to acknowledge, respect and work with the human reality already present in the workforce.

Best for:
Leadership teams and people managers who want to build cultures that are resilient, compassionate and genuinely human.

campaigns and activations:

ideas that leave the screen , and show up in the real world.

Creating moments people actually want to experience and remember. Delivered as focus projects giving ideas the space, structure and support to land properly.

From concept to execution (or straight execution management if you've already got the idea) I will lead on the thinking, planning and delivery. Working hands-on with trusted partners to bring the campaign to life.

looking at:

campaign or activation idea/support + creative platform
strategic planning and rollout approach
partner sourcing and management (production, events, creators, media)
retail, DTC and cultural activations
sampling, partnerships and IRL moments
launch, delivery and optimisation support

Engagement style:
Projects typically run over several months, moving through defined phases; idea, planning, prep and execution - rather than rushed, one-off bursts.

advisory:

clear thinking, honest challenge, trusted perspective.

For founders and leadership teams who want senior brand input without day-to-day execution. This is a flexible advisory role - acting as a sounding board, sense-checking decisions, and helping navigate moments of growth, change or uncertainty.

Includes:

Monthly or quarterly strategic check-ins
Brand and creative decision support
Founder/ team support and challenge
Objective, outside-in perspective

TL;DR:

senior brand direction without the

full-time hire.

Senior brand leadership without the full-time overhead. I step into your business to set direction, align teams and build momentum.

best for:
founders and teams needing long term clarity and confident decision-making.

campaigns and activations

big ideas executed properly,

not half-done.

Campaigns and brand activations from the idea, to planning, to execution - delivered through focused phases over time.

best for:

unlocking ideas with a collaborative

team mindset.

High-energy sessions designed to spark creativity, align teams and build healthier, more sustainable momentum.

best for:
in-house teams, founders and agencies needing fresh energy and focus.

advisory

trusted sounding board when you

need perspective.

Strategic input, challenge and clarity, without the day-to-day involvement.

best for:
founders and leadership teams navigating change or growth.

no bullshit. no fluff.
just work that works.

pricing:

Every engagement is shaped around what you’re trying to achieve, how fast you want to move, and the level of involvement needed, rather than set packages. Enquire below and we can chat.

Most engagements will fall into one of three formats:

Ongoing retainers at a monthly rate: fractional leadership or longer programs

Fixed-scope projects at an agreed cost: campaigns, activations or workshops

Advisory retainers with set cost
