Freelance support and collaboration

I would like to say 'Hi' and welcome you to my Marketing & Brand Consultancy page

Support when and where you need it

Extra support when you need to deliver more than time allows. Or when a project calls for strategic insight to bring clarity and direction from the start, without losing quality, pace, or focus.

Sometimes you need extra thinking power and practical support to move work forward.  Someone who can quickly understand the brief, adapt to your way of working, and deliver high-quality strategic or hands-on input without needing a long onboarding. That is where I come in.

As a freelancer with a background in both agencies and corporates, I understand the reality of shifting priorities, tight deadlines, and client expectations. I provide flexible support for agencies, companies, and fellow freelancers looking for extra capacity, temporary expertise, or an external partner who can provide ongoing strategic input when needed.

Support that fits your way of working

Whether you are developing a brand, shaping a strategy or managing a complex marketing project, I can work behind the scenes or take a more visible role.

Freelance support can take many forms depending on your brief, your timeline and your team setup. I adapt my role to fit the needs of each project, offering both strategic direction and hands-on delivery.

I can work independently or as part of your team, in-house or externally, depending on what suits the project best.​​

Ways we can work together

Project basis

I work with you to address a specific challenge or opportunity. The scope is defined at the start, and I shape the direction, carry out the work and keep things on track throughout. This suits projects with a clear objective and timeframe.

Retainer basis

I offer structured support over a set period. This can be a number of days per week or month, or a pre-paid bundle of days or hours to use when needed. It gives you access to consistent input without starting from scratch each time.

Interim support

I step in for a defined period to provide strategic and practical support within your existing setup. This can be helpful during parental leave, a recruitment gap or a busy phase. I help maintain progress and keep work on track.

FAQs

Easy to work with, ready to start

You do not need to spend time getting me up to speed. The aim is always to lift pressure off your team, not add to it.

I ask the right questions, quickly understand the brief and begin shaping the work without unnecessary back and forth.

If you are looking for experienced freelance support to help you deliver great work, without the need for heavy onboarding, I would be glad to support your next project.
