About Us.
Senior marketing leadership, built differently.
built differently.
The Growth Edge was built around a simple idea: senior marketing decisions are better when they're challenged.
We've both spent our careers leading marketing, building businesses and working with leadership teams. We've seen what happens when marketing has clear senior ownership — and what happens when it remains one of the many things sitting with the founder.
That's why we don't operate like a traditional consultancy, agency or single fractional Marketing Director.
One of us works in the business, close enough to the team, customers and commercial reality to lead marketing and make things happen. The other stays on the business — bringing perspective, challenging assumptions and making sure the decisions being made are still the right ones.
It means you don't just get experienced people doing marketing.
You get senior marketing leadership with challenge and accountability built in.
Why two senior marketers?
Because the person closest to the work shouldn't be the only person judging whether it's the right work.
One of us stays close enough to lead marketing properly. The other stays far enough away to challenge it properly.
That tension is deliberate.
Tim Stoller.
Co-Founder / Strategy Lead
Tim has spent his career making marketing accountable for commercial results.
He's held senior marketing, commercial and strategic roles across businesses ranging from the BBC and Lindt to Innocent Drinks and high-growth businesses including The Happiness Index.
His experience spans both established organisations and founder-led businesses, giving him a practical understanding of the challenge The Growth Edge clients face: how to turn marketing from a collection of activities into a properly led commercial function.
Tim's strength is connecting marketing decisions to the bigger business picture: customers, revenue, priorities and growth, and turning that thinking into action.

Chris Gomez.
Co-Founder / Brand Lead
Chris brings the perspective of both a senior marketer and a business owner.
His career spans agencies, major media and corporate businesses, including Publicis Groupe, OMD, JCDecaux, Metro and Eurosport, alongside building and scaling his own franchised business.
That combination means he understands marketing from both sides of the table: what good marketing looks like and what a founder actually needs it to deliver.
Chris's strengths lie in positioning, brand, commercial marketing and challenging businesses to make clearer choices about where they compete, what they stand for and where marketing should focus.
Jane Gomez.
Operations Lead
Jane makes sure The Growth Edge works as well operationally as it does strategically.
Over 15 years as MD of The Supper Club (now Helm) and subsequently as a consultant, Jane has worked closely with thousands of founders and leadership teams.
That experience gives her an unusually good understanding of the realities of running a growing founder-led business — the competing priorities, people challenges and commercial pressures that sit behind the marketing problem.
At The Growth Edge, Jane helps keep our work organised, connected and focused on delivering what clients actually need.
