In this time, he led digital transformation and data‑driven marketing programmes for major UK brands, developing expertise in marketing automation, customer personalisation and technology‑enabled journey design.

At BT, Josh has played a pivotal role in the organisation’s marketing transformation, consolidating multiple automation platforms into a single strategic solution and embedding always‑on, personalised customer journeys. Under his leadership, the team delivered a 25% increase in campaign output with no increase in headcount, driven by improved processes, better technology adoption and a culture of collaboration and continuous improvement.
