About me.

Martin Rippon smaller file size.jpeg

I have spent two-thirds of my career on the client side, working in brand management at grocery multi-national Nestlé, on beer brands like Heineken and Stella Artois, then as Regional Head of Marketing for Levi’s in Europe and Asia. More recently I  was brought in as CMO of iconic Australian brand, RM Williams, helping re-position that brand following the involvement of LVMH.

 

Between times I ran leading Australian Agency, BMF, as Partner and MD, helping grow the business from 15 people to over 200, and achieve recognition as 'Agency of the Decade', delivering a highly profitable business that was sold in 2010.

 

A digital marketer since 1996, my experience covers retail, fashion, financial services, food and drinks, governmental and Not-For-Profit sectors, and the innovation and start-up space.

 

As well as launching my own side-hustle, crazyarms.com - a small purpose-led clothing brand in 2018 - I am a trained executive coach and mentor, working at both individual and corporate level, sharing my twin passions of marketing and people development.

 

I am also co-Founder of bespoke creative business:

Gutthink & Partners
