Head Of Marketing CommunicationsSantander Uk Mar 2015 - Feb 2017Boadilla Del Monte, Madrid, EsAt Santander UK I am responsible for Marketing Communications across the bank, including our Retail, Wealth and Corporate businesses. Managing a team of talented marketers and a small rosta of agencies, I am proud of the award winning work we produce and the positive impact it has on our strategic objectives.

Head Of National MarketingSantander Uk Corporate & Commercial Feb 2014 - Mar 2015London, London, GbSantander Commercial & Corporate Bank is a relatively new entity, focussed on challenging the UK commercial banking sector. Despite rapid early stage growth, its proposition lacked clarity and differentiation.So my role has been to re-design our B2B marketing strategy, shifting our focus from 'me to' sector-based advertising to content and experiential-based activity, in order to make Santander famous for helping ambitious businesses prosper. By effectively communicating the unique elements of our offer and galvanising our people around a simple purpose, Santander is now the first choice alternative for ambitious entrepreneurs. -
Head Of Technical MarketingVitality Uk Feb 2013 - Feb 2014London, GbHealthcare and insurance are highly complex. At Vitality (previously PruHealth) my role was to simplify both – helping to shape our customer and intermediary communications and to inform product development.My focus was largely on the intermediary and corporate audiences. For the latter, I led the development and delivery of ‘Britain’s Healthiest Company’, a qualitative and quantitative research-based awards programme to recognise excellence in Employer health programmes. BHC (now Britain's Healthiest Workplace) provided both a promotional platform and a tangible demonstration of our unique proposition - health insurance combined with an incentive-based wellness programme.I also developed and delivered Corporate Vitality Consulting, a methodology and digital tool for consultants to use to demonstrate the importance of investing in employee health. This was offered to selected intermediaries, which involved a comprehensive training and roll-out programme. Whilst at Vitality I also spent time in South Africa at the parent organisation (Discovery) and presented on UK employee health at a global Vitality conference in Johannesburg. -
Head Of Customer & Strategic Product Development (Cspd), Head Of E-Commerce (Interim)Bupa Health & Wellbeing Oct 2010 - Feb 2013Uk, Australia, Spain, Chile, Poland, New Zealand, Hong Kong Sar, Türkiye, Brazil, Mexico, The Us, Middle East, Ireland, Saudi Arabia And India., GbC&SPD was established to provide a focus on longer term strategic growth activity within Bupa Health & Wellbeing. Leading this team, I have responsibility for innovation, distribution strategy and joint ventures – each of which have the potential to significantly impact the future direction and growth potential of Bupa in the UK. Whilst in this role, I devised the first methodical cycle of innovation that BHW has embarked upon in 60 years and successfully took four completely new products to market, including an entirely new product category: self-pay ('Bupa on Demand'). During a period of change I also had interim responsibility for our e-Commerce team, which I re-structured and created new processes to drive a) greater commercial alignment, b) improved efficiency in delivery, and c) new quality benchmarks by using external sources of insight and expertise. -
Head Of Healthcare Products & InnovationBupa Health & Wellbeing Oct 2010 - May 2012Uk, Australia, Spain, Chile, Poland, New Zealand, Hong Kong Sar, Türkiye, Brazil, Mexico, The Us, Middle East, Ireland, Saudi Arabia And India., GbIn my first role at Bupa Health and Wellbeing, I had responsibility for a portfolio of business lines generating +£100m in revenues per annum including: Bupa Travel Insurance, Dental Insurance, Cash Plan and our Health Assessment portfolio.Despite their relatively small turnover, relative to the core Health Insurance business, these products were potentially highly profitable yet largely over-looked. So my first task was to re-position a mix of ‘cottage industries’ with very little commercial governance, focus or ambition into a portfolio of services worth £100m. I then influenced the Executive to secure resource, investment and focus on these products within the wider business, resulting in significant revenue and profitability growth. Product development plans were then put in place across each business line, leading to significant year-on-year performance improvements. Plans included the development of a host of new products and product variants (in response to insight and market demand), and the decommissioning of old and poorly performing products to simplify our offer. Most significantly, a full strategic review of Bupa Travel Insurance was conducted and the conclusions helped to secure Executive endorsement to radically transform the operating model and scale of ambition for this business.
