Board Director & Advisor | Formerly Global VP @Burberry | Helping Fashion Luxury & Retail Brands Scale with Discipline, Integrity & Global Relevance

About me

I help companies - especially in luxury and high-value consumer sectors - scale with discipline, protect brand value, and navigate global complexity. With deep experience at the intersection of brand, governance, and risk, I advise boards and leadership teams on how to de-risk growth, strengthen market position, and protect long-term enterprise value. As a Board Director and former Global Vice President at Burberry, I’ve led global brand strategy, risk oversight, and crisis management across more than 90 markets. I built and led the global function responsible for safeguarding brand equity, enhancing reputation, and secured over $300M in legal victories that protected brand integrity and shareholder value. Today, as Founder of MRM Brand Advisory, I partner with boards, investors, and leadership teams to align brand, operations, and oversight - ensuring companies scale responsibly, protect reputation, and position themselves for sustainable global growth. Things I can advise on: ✔️ Brand growth & strategy ✔️ Career journeys ✔️ Brand value & reputation management ✔️ All things luxury ✔️ Compliance & regulatory strategy ✔️ Corporate culture & talent management ✔️ Crisis management & legal risk

This feature is free to use and you'll only get charged when they confirm the booking (a credit card pre-auth is required).
