Founder and CEO of The Great Pitch Company, Marcus brings 30 years’ experience in galvanising clients, colleagues and prospects across the communications industry.

An international player, he has held local, regional and global Business Development roles at WPP and Publicis Groupe as well as having led a cross-discipline, multi-lingual hub agency in Switzerland to award-winning success.

The Great Pitch Company was established in 2018 and has rapidly become recognised around the globe as the experts that agencies turn to when looking to achieve profitable business growth, whether they be independent agencies, networks or holding companies.
Over the years he has been fortunate enough to work in all regions of the world to win domestic, regional and global pitches, such as Microsoft, Jaguar Land Rover, P&G, Merck Consumer Healthcare, Visa Europe, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) and L’Oréal.

He’s also been instrumental to many award-winning communications campaigns for not-for- profit institutions including the UN’s Refugee Agency (UNHCR), the International Conservation Union (IUCN) and the UK’s ‘Full Stop Campaign’ to end cruelty to children.
For many years he held key roles at the European Association of Communication Agencies (EACA), chairing their International Agencies Council as well as sitting on the EACA Board. He’s also proudly served two different terms as a Council Member at the UK’s Trade Association – the IPA.

A twenty-year business and pleasure love affair with Italy, made Italy the obvious choice to expand the European footprint of The Great Pitch Company in Milan, which he did in 2022.
