Job Title: Marketing Manager & TFTC Program Manager

Team: Operations & TFTC

Year joined Kinexus: 2013

 

What do you actually do?

I lead marketing at Kinexus. I design and deliver the content, campaigns and events that keep us visible and trusted across Defence and national security.

I also run TFTC, where my job is to keep the program executed, supported and evolving so the mentoring experience stays strong year after year.

 

What areas of the business do you support?

I support the business through marketing and brand operations: design, content and comms, events and webinars, website and landing pages, email marketing and automation, plus the systems and reporting that keep it all moving. My lane is making sure Kinexus shows up consistently and credibly, with work that looks sharp, reads clearly, and is genuinely useful.

Because SME life means extra balls are always in the air, I sometimes end up helping outside marketing too, like untangling the odd IT issue or getting an office move over the line. If it needs to be clearer, more polished, more useful, or delivered without chaos, it often lands on my desk.

 

What's one thing you care about getting right for the people you work with?

Always doing better. I'm constantly refining how we work so it's more efficient, more beautiful, more helpful and more impactful. I can't unsee clunky processes or clunky slides, so I fix them, even when they technically aren't "marketing".

 

How did you get here?

I'm the Marketing Manager at Kinexus, and I've been here for 13 years, so I've seen the business evolve through a lot of change and opportunity. I've spent nearly 18 years in marketing and events, mostly in small businesses where you learn to do a bit of everything, sometimes well outside your job description. I've worked across retail, health, music and even seafood, and I hold an Advanced Diploma in Marketing. Marketing keeps evolving, which is exactly why I still love it.

 

Something people might not know?

Outside work, I'm usually in mum mode, organising sport, pottering in the garden, or disappearing into a fantasy saga with a gin and tonic.
