Interim Marketing Leadership & Maternity Cover

Experienced leadership when your business can’t afford to lose momentum.

People take parental leave. Leaders move on. Roles take longer to fill than expected. But commercial targets, team responsibilities and growth priorities don’t simply disappear.

I provide experienced interim marketing and growth leadership, stepping into the business to keep teams moving, priorities clear and execution on track.

Whether you need maternity cover, temporary senior leadership or someone to bridge a critical transition, the goal is simple: continuity without compromise.

Who it's for

For startups, scaleups and established businesses that need temporary senior marketing leadership during maternity or parental leave, recruitment gaps, organisational changes or periods of transition.

Suitable for businesses that need someone who can take ownership quickly, work independently and keep commercial priorities progressing.

Problems it solves

  • A leadership gap. Your Head of Marketing, Growth Director or CMO is temporarily unavailable, with no clear person to take ownership.
  • Loss of momentum. Key campaigns, acquisition initiatives and growth projects risk slowing down.
  • An unsupported team. Your marketing team needs leadership, prioritisation and decision-making while their manager is away.
  • Commercial uncertainty. Senior stakeholders still need visibility into performance, budgets, forecasts and progress.
  • A difficult transition. You’re recruiting, restructuring or preparing for a new leader and need stability in the meantime.

What's included

  • — Taking on the existing strategy and team
  • — Keeping campaigns and revenue moving
  • — Maintaining reporting and stakeholder relationships
  • — Clean handover when they return
