Hello

I’m Simon Hayhurst

I can help with four things.

Thanks to my B2B marcoms / key account management / research background:

  • I can plan and implement highly successful insight-driven B2B marketing campaigns.
  • I can lead the growth of multi-million pound B2B key accounts in a variety of sectors.
  • I can lead major market research projects that divine fresh insights for B2B clients
  • And when I’m not doing that, I write engaging B2B marketing content.

How can I prove this?

In a thirty year career…

I’ve amassed over two decades’ key account management experience running multi-million £ accounts at marketing agencies, white-label insurers, a B2B research agency and a global business travel services provider.

I’ve gained over two decades’ financial services marketing experience, working with some of the world’s biggest FS brands: Lloyds Bank, Halifax, AEGON, Barclays, Barclaycard, NatWest, RBS, VISA, Diners Club Worldwide, Capital One, MBNA, UBS, Danske Bank, Nordea and dozens more.

I’ve achieved over a decade’s agency-side marcoms experience – running award-winning integrated campaigns in press, radio, outdoor, digital, point of sale, telemarketing and direct mail. Even some TV.

I’ve well over a decade’s B2B marketing experience, developing comms campaigns for the likes of Lloyds Business Banking & Eastern Electricity.

I’ve spent the last 3 years leading B2B research projects, investigating trends in the application of technology in business / professional services: cloud computing, digital transformation, artificial intelligence, machine learning, application software monitoring, for the likes of DLA Piper, LexisNexis, AppDynamics, Amdocs, Wipro, Automation Anywhere, Computershare and many more.

I’m based in London, and am currently available for hire.
