About Ben

I help startups and scaleups turn strategy into clear marketing execution. As a senior marketing and growth consultant, I work with founders and teams who need focus, prioritisation, and momentum.

My work typically starts with clarifying the go-to-market approach, defining the right positioning, and translating this into concrete actions. I support companies with marketing strategy, go-to-market setup, growth initiatives, and employer branding, often in fast-moving or transition phases.

I’m used to working hands-on with leadership teams, aligning stakeholders, and delivering practical outputs such as audits, action plans, campaign roadmaps, and execution sprints. Engagements range from short diagnostic projects to interim or part-time roles.

If you need someone who combines strategic thinking with practical delivery and moves things forward without unnecessary complexity, I can help.
