About

Marketer first. Builder close behind.

I think in pipeline, revenue and customer experience, then build the systems that deliver them. That combination means the strategy I present is the one that gets delivered.

Benjamin Jacquet

I'm a marketing technologist, certified automation architect and operations leader with more than ten years delivering digital transformation across technology, finance, telecommunications, automotive and education.

The job, as I see it, has never been “run the platform”. It is to understand what a company sells, who buys it and why they hesitate, then work out exactly what will make that customer's decision easier: less friction, better timing, a journey that fits. I've applied that thinking for brands like Telstra, Optus, Subaru, FedEx and AMEX, covering the full cycle from positioning and objection-handling through to the sale and what happens after it.

Most marketers stop at the deck. Most engineers start at the ticket. The advantage isn't writing the plan. It's knowing exactly how it becomes a working system.

That is where the technical half earns its keep. I design and build the automation, CRM and lifecycle ecosystems myself: the scoring models, the journeys, the integrations, the reporting pipelines, and increasingly the AI workflows and agents that sit across all of it. Strategy through to working system, under one ownership: no misread requirements, nothing lost in a handover.

My work spans ABM, lifecycle strategy, lead generation, data intelligence and digital transformation, always at the intersection of strategy and execution, and always measured on what it moved commercially.

How I Work

Principles first. Practice to back them.

Core principles
01

Commercial outcomes first

Revenue, pipeline and customer lifetime value are the brief. Everything else, including the technology, is in service of those numbers.

02

Strategy you can ship

I do not hand a deck to someone else and hope. The strategy, the build, the launch and the optimisation loop are one continuous piece of work.

03

Systems that keep learning

A campaign ends. A system compounds. Scoring, journeys, attribution and AI models that get sharper with every customer interaction.

Where I specialise

Lifecycle & Personalisation
