Freelance Marketing Lead
For Startups And SMEs

When you work with me, you get experienced marketing support that adapts to where your business is today. I help bring clarity to priorities, align marketing with your growth goals, and support both strategic thinking and day-to-day delivery. My aim is to make marketing feel clearer, more focused, and genuinely useful for your business.

Pricing depends on scope and level of involvement.

For project-based work, senior freelance marketing leads in the UK typically charge between £3,000-£8,000 per project, depending on complexity and timelines.

For monthly retainers, the usual range is £1,500-£5,000 per month, based on ongoing support, leadership needs, and delivery.

I offer bespoke, on-demand pricing for specific needs such as audits, launches, interim support, or short strategic projects. I always aim to keep pricing clear and aligned with the value delivered.

This option often works well when you need senior marketing input but are not ready for a full-time hire. Many startups and SMEs choose this route during periods of growth, change, or transition, when experience and flexibility matter most. It allows you to move forward with confidence while keeping costs and commitments manageable.

Yes. Depending on your needs, I can focus on strategy, hands-on delivery, or a mix of both. Some clients want clear direction and structure, others need practical support to move things forward. I adapt to your setup and work closely with internal teams, freelancers, or agencies where relevant.

A senior freelance marketing lead should bring both strategic perspective and practical experience. I have worked across B2B and B2C, with startups and scaleups, and across multiple European markets, for the past 20 years. This allows me to approach challenges with context, flexibility, and a strong understanding of what tends to work at different stages.

Many clients notice early progress within the first few weeks, often through clearer priorities, better alignment, and more focused plans. Meaningful results take time and depend on your goals and channels, but my aim is always to create momentum early while building solid foundations.

Results vary depending on your starting point, but often include clearer positioning, stronger go-to-market plans, improved lead quality, and more confident marketing decisions. My role is to support sustainable growth and help you move forward with clarity rather than pressure.

Success is defined together at the start. That might relate to growth metrics, launch performance, brand visibility, or internal organisation. I focus on measures that make sense for your business and stage, and I regularly review progress to make sure the work stays aligned with your goals.

Absolutely. I often work in partnership with internal teams and external agencies. My role can be to provide direction, support collaboration, and help ensure everyone is working towards the same priorities. This tends to create smoother workflows and clearer decision-making.

Look for someone who takes the time to understand your business, listens carefully, and brings both experience and perspective. The right person should feel like a trusted partner, able to guide decisions with clarity while respecting your team, culture, and pace.
