What I'm looking for

I’m looking for international, multi-market B2B growth work spanning integrated and field marketing, demand generation and strategic partnerships, where I can build clear positioning, attract the right audiences and deliver measurable commercial value.

I've led B2B growth, integrated marketing and partnership programmes for Strategy Institute, International Exhibition & Conference Group, Clarion Events, Lagos Chamber of Commerce & Industry, and government and trade organisations across Europe, Africa, North America and Asia.

My work turns market insight into positioning, multi-channel demand-generation campaigns, executive engagement and commercial outcomes. I have generated $900K+ in annual revenue, enabled $15M+ in commercial opportunities, and delivered 40%+ year-on-year audience growth.

At Strategy Institute, I lead marketing for AI, data analytics, investment and financial-services portfolios, delivering campaigns that generate 700–2,200 qualified leads and contributing to 36% portfolio growth. Earlier, I contributed to 60% portfolio revenue growth at Clarion Events and scaled exhibitor participation from 100 to 390 organisations at Lagos Chamber of Commerce & Industry.

Alongside consulting, I founded Leoht Africa and lead Servipix Group, building cross-border partnerships, market-development programmes and international events. I’m most energised by work at the intersection of B2B growth, field marketing, demand generation and strategic partnerships.
