I am a commercial and data-driven digital marketing and trading manager with over seven years of experience driving multi-channel digital acquisition and revenue growth. I take ownership of paid media budgets across Google Ads (Search, Shopping, PMax), Meta, and TikTok, thriving in fast-paced, high-growth retail environments. I bridge the gap between marketing strategy, stock inventory, and promotional calendars, and I continuously test and optimize campaigns to maximise ROAS, reduce CPA, and deliver a measurable, profitable impact to the bottom line. In recent roles, I have led strategic planning for multi-million-pound budgets, accelerated account performance through structured testing and beta programs, and bridged gaps between paid search and SEO. I enjoy turning complex data into clear, actionable insights that inform decision-making across senior stakeholders.
