Simon

Saɪmən
name

eCommerce marketing pro with a knack for problem solving.

Origin: Latin
Meaning: taken form the Hebrew Šimʻôn, which means to listen or hearing.

Simon has spent the better part of his career making sure businesses are found online and, crucially, that people actually buy something when they get there. With a background spanning paid search, ecommerce, content, social, UX and brand, he is the kind of marketer who is equally comfortable pulling apart a Google Ads account or briefing a creative campaign, and who has managed budgets comfortably into six figures to prove it.

He has worked across a wide variety of sectors which means he is rarely thrown by a new brief and almost always has a relevant war story. He brings to Samphire a particular talent for making limited budgets work considerably harder than they have any right to, alongside a genuinely broad skill set and a catalogue of truly appalling dad jokes.

Outside of work, Simon’s interests include Formula 1, live music and films. He is also, and this is not something that comes up enough in professional circles, a former Butlins under-14 breakdance champion.
