Stephen Thomason MCIM

Senior Marketer and Business Leader

UK and International Marketing Consultant

I am a well-respected, dedicated, senior marketer, highly strategic and creative, consistently delivering unique ideas and solutions to help innovative and ambitious companies and organisations.

I have over 35 years’ experience, both agency side and client side, in generating strategic and creative marketing solutions for companies and organisations looking to grow and develop locally and internationally. I have successfully run my own businesses and been a senior director of UK companies since the age of 22.

Over 120 businesses of various sizes have been supported through this marketing and business development support, many have also received discounts and grants when available. Each project has involved achieving specific goals, some of which have necessitated working alongside senior directors at board level and many challenges.

Over the last 10 years my experience has expanded to advising on manufacturing, systems, finance raising and employment issues, giving me a unique all-round ability to apply and give sound advice for most markets and a wider breadth of knowledge than just marketing and sales.
