Marketing Consultant (C-Suite Level)

We are seeking high-calibre, C-Suite consultants to help small to mid-sized businesses achieve their growth ambitions by transforming their marketing capabilities. Many growing businesses lack the in-house resources to scale their marketing effectively, and this role provides short-term access to expertise that can rapidly create a marketing function delivering and de-risking growth.

Responsibilities:

• Collaborate with clients to develop and refine marketing strategies, whether starting from scratch or building on existing foundations.

• Establish strong brand foundations by defining and embedding compelling and differentiating brand values.

• Develop compelling brand narratives and messaging to engage external target audiences and align/motivate internal teams.

• Identify optimal marketing activities to build awareness, drive consideration and conversion, and foster long-term loyalty.

• Create clear, actionable marketing plans with robust measurement methods for success and return on investment.

• Lead or support the implementation of marketing strategies, potentially by acting as a fractional CMO or mentoring existing marketing leads.

• Assist in recruiting marketing teams, from heads of marketing to key specialists.

• Deploy consultants with specific expertise (e.g., digital, public affairs) to achieve early wins while client teams are built or upskilled.

• Vet current agencies or source new partners as needed.

Qualifications:

• Proven experience at or just below board level within well-known businesses.

• An unusual combination of skills including brand, marketing, communications, market research, and people and culture.

• Ability to work collaboratively and effectively with clients, demonstrating a deep understanding of their business to achieve tangible results.
