Leadership Services Clients

A part-time Marketing Director from Leadership Services starts from £1,795 per month. This compares to a full-time Marketing Director or CMO salary which typically ranges from £60,000 to £120,000 per year in the UK, plus benefits and recruitment fees. Our model gives you senior marketing leadership at a fraction of the total cost, with no long-term commitments.

A Marketing Director focuses on brand strategy, lead generation, and customer acquisition. A Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) is typically a board-level role overseeing the entire marketing function across a larger organisation. In practice, for most SMEs these roles overlap significantly. Leadership Services provides fractional Marketing Directors who operate at both strategic and tactical levels, giving you CMO-quality thinking without the full-time cost.

Absolutely. Our part-time Marketing Directors are designed to complement your existing team, not replace it. They work alongside your in-house marketers, agencies, and board to provide strategic direction, campaign oversight, and brand leadership from day one. Whether you have an established marketing team that needs stronger leadership, or you’re building your marketing capability from scratch, our Marketing Directors adapt to your business quickly and effectively.

Most of our part-time Marketing Directors can begin working with your business within one to two weeks. After an initial discovery call to understand your marketing challenges and goals, we match you with the right director from our network. There is no lengthy recruitment process — you gain experienced marketing leadership rapidly, without the notice periods and onboarding delays associated with a full-time hire.

For most SMEs and growing businesses, a part-time Marketing Director provides the senior strategic marketing leadership they need at a fraction of the cost of a full-time hire. If your organisation needs to build brand awareness, generate leads, or develop a coherent marketing strategy, our part-time model is typically sufficient. It gives you access to director-level expertise without committing to a £80,000–£120,000 annual salary plus benefits.

Our part-time Marketing Directors and fractional CMOs have experience across a broad range of sectors including professional services, technology, financial services, healthcare, retail, education, and manufacturing. We match each client with a director whose sector background aligns with your market, so they can hit the ground running with relevant knowledge of your customers, competitors, and channels.
