Marketing & Digital Leader

I'm a marketing professional with over two decades of local and international experience. I’ve had the good fortune to work with some of the world's most iconic brands, collaborating with the best strategic and creative minds.

I’ve acquired a diverse skillset across multiple industries - from fashion, travel, health, beauty, finance, automotive, retail and FMCG. I have vast omnichannel experience from ATL channels, Ecommerce, UX, CRM, social, PR, performance, direct response and activation.

These are skills that I've methodically developed over time, giving me a holistic approach to marketing without the bias of a singular viewpoint. Having first-hand experience across multiple disciplines gives me a well-rounded understanding of how each channel can be activated to execute different aspects of a brand strategy for the best outcomes.

I've developed business and marketing strategies and have hands-on implementation experience to bring them to fruition. I've built and led teams - I pride myself on creating an environment where individuals are empowered and can develop and grow. I have vast experience in business operations, forecasting, budgeting, reporting and implementation of practices and processes to create operating efficiencies to improve commercial performance.

I bring a wealth of experience, a strategic mindset, and a proven track record to drive success at both the brand and enterprise levels.

TESTIMONIALS

I feel privileged to have worked with some incredibly talented colleagues and clients over the years.

Here’s what they had to say.

Matthew Ryan, CIO at Ozdare

“Libby is a highly skilled and results-oriented marketing leader. I’ve had the pleasure of witnessing Libby in action during my time as CIO at Ozdare (Kevin Murphy, Eleven Australia and K18). While not a CMO in title, Libby possesses all the skills of a very highly capable, talented and creative C-suite executive and more!

Here's what impresses me about Libby:
* Strategic Visionary: Ability to Develop comprehensive marketing strategies for each brand, boosting brand awareness and market share.
* Marketing Expertise: Management all aspects of marketing (digital, social, PR, influencer), demonstrating deep industry knowledge.
* Inspiring Leader: Motivational leader of the marketing team, fostering a creative and results-oriented environment.
* Data-Driven Approach: Uses data analytics to track performance and optimise campaigns.

Libby, I wish you every continued success in your career!”

Estyn Jones, Creative Director of Experience Design at R/GA

“It was a true pleasure to work alongside Libby. She was a true asset on our team. Very diligent and considered. She built great relationships across internal and client teams and really understood everyone, and how to help push and challenge. She’s a corker for seeing through the BS and getting to the chase. Direct and authentic but never rude. I can’t wait to work with her again!”

Sarah Sproule, Chief Marketing Officer at Athena

"Libby is an experienced, resourceful and strategic client service lead; with extensive exposure to working with some of Australia’s largest and most successful retailers. Her skill set is integrated, including depth across various digital disciplines and platforms. Libby builds client and team trust through her hardworking and honest approach. She is an asset to any business."

Brett de Niese, Executive Director of Client Services AUNZ at AKQA

"Libby joined the account leadership team and it was then that I really grew to cherish and admire her perspective and thinking. Always an advocate for fairness and equality, Libby certainly opened my eyes on many occasions where I was completely blinded. It was sad to see Libby leave the firm, the more I got to know her, the more I realised we had not yet seen all she had to offer."

Russell Williamson, Senior Account Director at Havas Red Agency

"From the minute Libby joined the team, she brought an incredible enthusiasm, joy and energy that was both inspiring and equally effective. Her skills and competence, particularly in dealing with clients and internal staff, were second to none and she always managed often challenging circumstances with an extraordinary degree of calm, efficient and effective solutions. Libby was always ready with creative ideas and ready to question why, ensuring that everyone in the team constantly delivered their very best."

Lynn Chinnock, StudioX Lead Europe at WPP

"Libby is a nurturing and dedicated leader. During our time working together, she earned great respect from her team and clients in the way she built a positive culture and partnership. Libby's role focused on senior client counsel, driving integration across departments, leading operational systems and overall team mentorship. I valued my time working with Libby, and hope to work with her again."

Stephanie Naylor, Senior Marketing Professional at Lexus Australia

”I had the pleasure of working with Libby as her client in the Public Affairs team at Toyota Australia. Libby did some incredible work contributing to the Red Havas and Toyota agency/client relationship and brought with her a wealth of knowledge in culture and effective communication. Apart from being a valued team member professionally, Libby was a kind, honest and an absolute pleasure to work with and be around on a daily basis.”

Renee Docherty, Social Media & PR Specialist at Platform Marketing + Comms

“Libby is an immensely talented communications and operations professional who not only brings her A game every day but she helps bring out the best in her team and clients. I feel so privileged to have worked alongside Libby."
