Mini Chapter Mentorship Project

Mentor Match: Elevating Marketers Together

I'm super, excited and delighted to announce my Mini Chapters Mentoring Project! 


A Mentoring project, focused on introducing Senior Marketers to Marketers looking to progress their career further, who have ambition but don't quite have the networks or access to leaders that they can truly learn from. 


I am committing myself in making one introduction per week, for both a Mentee and a Mentor to collaborate, learn, develop a trusted Mentorship relationship. I myself have a Mentor and talking from experience it has made a huge positive impact to my professional life and has very much helped me squash all those self-doubts!


Why am I doing this?


  • Well, honestly it make me feel good!


  • I've experienced first-hand the benefits in having a trusted Mentor and it worked wonders for me personally! 


  • I'm in a lucky position where I get to speak to amazing Marketing Leaders every day, I also get to speak to Marketers still progressing through the ranks and who have ambition and are focused on one day becoming a Marketing Leader. Why not join the 2 together?


  • Finally, I'm not financially benefiting from this in anyway. This is purely an opportunity to connect awesome leaders with junior marketers that have drive and ambition and who don't currently have access to an awesome Mentor. 


  • I would love to hear from you if you would like to become either a Mentor OR a Mentee!


Mentors:


  • Are you open to becoming a Mentor? - I'd love to hear from you! Please shoot me through a DM and I'd be happy to schedule a call.
  • What's Involved? Well, I'll connect you with a suitable Mentee and leave it up to you guys to coordinate a coffee / Intro meeting and the rest is up to you!
  • Having a Mentee will allow you to give back all that amazing knowledge and talent you have acquired over the years, gain new perspectives and support you in being a recognised adviser!


Mentees:


  • Is there a missing Mentor gap in your network?
  • Are you looking to one day become a CMO or GM of Marketing, and want to gain advice and a non-biased opinion from a Leader in your field that you trust.
  • You get out what you put in, know what you want to get from your Mentor, what areas of your professional self do you wish to develop?
  • A Mentor cannot fix all of life's problems, but they can put you on the straight and narrow when is comes to career advice and setting realistic expectations.

Marketing leaders across Australia are facing a growing challenge: not a lack of talent, but a lack of capacity and clarity. With leaner teams, rising expectations, and constant AI disruption, many marketing functions are stretched too thin. The CMOs navigating this well aren’t doing more — they’re getting sharper on priorities, structure, and where they need support.

Hiring hasn’t stopped — but expectations, budgets, and timelines are out of sync. The businesses making great hires right now are clear, realistic, and decisive. The ones struggling are chasing “unicorns,” overcomplicating roles, or moving too slowly. Meanwhile, candidates are prioritising impact, stability, and leadership over hype.

I’ve had a growing number of conversations with marketers who are excited about securing a higher salary - but surprised by the pace, pressure, and expectations that come with it. In my experience, salary isn’t just a reward for experience; it’s a signal of output, speed, and accountability. When expectations and capability aren’t aligned upfront, that’s when things start to unravel on both sides. Here’s what I wish more candidates and hiring managers talked about before the offer is signed.
