B2B Marketing Consultant & Fractional CMO in Surrey

I've spent 30 years working my way through the marketing world — from market research and brand strategy to global communications with organisations like Kantar, ORC International, and Canon. My last big corporate chapter was Director of Global Marketing and Internal Communications at Kantar's $300 million Profiles division, where I built the European marketing function from scratch and eventually led global comms through some fairly turbulent rebrands and restructures.

Then I took everything I'd learned working with world-class brands and brought it to the businesses that actually needed it most — ambitious SMEs who want their marketing to actually connect to commercial results. That's R.R Marketing: a B2B marketing consultancy built on one straightforward idea — that success starts with great communication.

“My superpower has never really been marketing tactics. It's people.”

I'm at my best when I'm connecting the right people to the right thinking — helping a business owner articulate what they do in a way that finally lands, or working out why a marketing strategy that looks right on paper isn't connecting to commercial results.

Away from work I'm a Scout Leader, Surrey Autism Champion, children's rugby coach, and a regular on the touch rugby and tennis circuits — though I'll admit it's as much about the people and the conversation afterwards as it is the sport itself.
