Why this works

Built from both sides.

Classical discipline

I have built growth across startup, scaleup and enterprise environments, from venture backed companies to blue-chip, listed businesses. The value is knowing what good looks like, then building the system that gets the team there.

Agentic execution

I build the agents, deploy the workflows and measure what compounds. The same stack I use for my own marketing is what I build for clients.

Marketing operations

Positioning, pipeline, content, reporting and team cadence have to connect. Strategy only matters when it changes what the business does every week.

Tech

My core tech stack.

The marketing infrastructure I use to grow my own business is the same system I implement for clients.

Queries

Frequently Asked Questions.

A senior marketing leader who embeds with your company on a fractional basis, typically two to three days a week, to build the function, hire the team and ship strategy without the cost of a permanent hire. You get a CMO seat at the leadership table for the months you need one, without a long term commitment.

A Forward Deployed Marketeer sits inside the business, finds the operational bottlenecks in growth, and builds the systems to remove them. That can mean positioning, pipeline, content, reporting, AI agents, CRM workflows or team cadence. The point is visible progress inside the operating system of the company.

Discovery within a week. Engagement scoped and signed within two. Live in your tools and shipping inside three. I run a small portfolio at a time, so a quick conversation tells us if there's a slot.

Most engagements are Series A through C, between €2M and €30M ARR, founder led teams of 15 to 120. I also take occasional advisory seats with seed stage AI native founders and brand transformation projects at large companies.

Yes. Based in Lisbon, working primarily with UK, European and US West Coast teams. I can travel for kickoff sessions, workshops and quarterly sessions where useful. Daily work is remote, on your tools, in your standups.

The fractional CMO is the strategy, hiring and judgement: the human leadership your team needs. The agents are the operating leverage: systems that handle repetitive research, reporting, drafting and routing between meetings. You get both in one engagement.
