Design leadership, grounded in delivery.

I’m a Head of Brand & Creative with a focus on making brand, digital and creative work function properly in real organisations — combining strategic direction with hands-on execution where it counts.

Over the past 15 years, I’ve built and scaled creative capability across consumer, retail and technology businesses — often in environments navigating structural change, acquisition or digital transformation.

Most recently I led a multi-brand retail organisation through a shift from 75% physical retail to 75% digital-first revenue, repositioning three acquired brands, building a challenger brand from scratch, and delivering 60% e-commerce conversion growth in the process.

How I work

I don’t separate brand, UX and commercial performance in the way organisations often do. From a customer’s point of view, they’re experienced as a single system — so my role is to make sure those parts work together rather than compete.

In practice, that means setting creative direction, building design systems, and staying close enough to the work to ensure quality doesn’t drift as things scale. I step into hands-on delivery — brand, packaging, digital — where pace, complexity or performance demand senior ownership.

Background

I’m currently Head of Brand & Creative at Days of Your Life Group, leading creative direction across a multi-brand consumer portfolio operating across Amazon, DTC and national retail partnerships including Primark, Boots and Next.

Earlier in my career I led brand and digital work across agencies and fast-growth technology businesses — often creating brands and platforms from scratch, or taking fragmented systems and making them coherent, scalable and commercially effective.
