About Me

Now working as an SEO consultant and content strategist, I started off in advertising, working for many years at DDB London (formerly BMP DDB) on the Volkswagen retail advertising account. I made the switch in 2006 into digital marketing where I work with companies as a freelancer.

My principle client is Chevrolet Europe, where I do all manner of things related to the 38 markets and 44 websites we manage - training, strategy, communication, copywriting and content strategy. I designed and now run our centralised SEO strategy. I was responsible for driving forward Chevrolet's integrated search strategy and to that end (and working closely with Rina Patel from Chevrolet), we're currently running a test, managed by Performics, which involves real-time active bid management for generic keywords, based on natural search positions. We've done a lot of linkbuilding to get to the position of being able to do this at all. Rina, Sam Holt (from Performics) and I are talking about this on May 14/15 at the Adobe EMEA Summit in London.

At Opel Vauxhall, my role is more focused on designing an end-to-end digital marketing strategy with the aim of improving lead generation.

I've also completed a similar project for Dulux Paints.

I love what I do and am keen to share my experience, especially on international SEO strategy, content development and governance (which includes training). Please get in touch if you think I might be able to help you. I currently work from home in South West London and am fairly keen for that to stay as it is.
