Fractional Marketing Lead
for B2B tech teams
A remote marketing expert for hire, capable of planning, executing, and optimizing marketing projects on a part-time or contract basis.
Hi, I’m Scott 👋
When people ask what I do, I like to tell them I’m a “marketing Swiss army knife.”
I’m one of the few senior-level marketers who are equally comfortable creating and optimizing campaigns as they are planning strategy, delivering a lean, full-stack marketing solution.
After more than a decade of climbing the agency ladder in the UK, I transitioned to fractional work to build something of my own. Now, I collaborate with businesses on a part-time or contract basis, bridging the gap between execution and strategy.
How I can help
Most clients bring me in for a blend of these. I set the direction, then do the work.

Scott’s personality and ease to talk with anyone makes him a great conduit for curating the stories from our team, gleaning insights from engineers and project managers to anchor his independent research.
I’ve thoroughly enjoyed our strategic conversations and seeing his quick growth when it comes to positioning stories to benefit XWP, our partners, and most importantly our clients and their stakeholders.

Scott is a force. I’ve watched him take rough outlines and loose ideas and turn them into industry-impacting thought leadership pieces. He’s action-oriented, able to manage a busy editorial calendar, and a humble team player.
The way Scott masters his role is a skill you can’t learn. You either have it or you don’t.
I would either hire Scott or work with him again on a team any day and without a second thought.

What is a fractional Marketing Lead?
A Fractional Marketing Lead is a part-time marketing hire who provides strategic leadership without the commitment or cost of a full-time position. They work with multiple clients, bringing senior expertise to each project they work on.
Marketing leads are a great way of bridging the gap between execution and strategy, often being experienced in both planning and content creation.
Do you work on a per-project basis or on a retainer?
Both. I offer flexible engagement options to suit your needs, whether you require project-based work for specific initiatives or ongoing support through a contract arrangement, I’m happy to help.
How flexible is an engagement with you?
Engagements are highly flexible, ranging from a few hours per week to 160 hours per month, depending on your business needs and project requirements.
Which hours do you work?
My working hours are flexible to allow overlap with your team. You can learn more about my working style in working with me.
Do you use AI in your work?
Yes. I use AI to speed up repetitive, time-intensive tasks, which lets me make a real impact even on a part-time basis.
It’s a productivity tool, though, and creative direction, strategy and anything published in your name still gets my full attention.
Are you open to full-time roles or longer contracts?
Yes. Most of my work is fractional, but I’m open to longer contracts or in-house roles when the fit is right.
