Hi! I’m Maria Page

The contract marketing manager behind Pocket Marketing

With 15+ years of experience, I’ve delivered marketing, communications, and engagement across a range of sectors. From complex public projects to fast-moving campaigns, I’m used to coordinating the moving parts and making sure the message lands.

How I can help

Project-based marketing leadership

Missing a manager? Facing a busy stretch? I step in to lead campaigns, manage teams, and deliver results without the learning curve.

Public-facing engagement

From stakeholder engagement to public consultations, I create clear, accessible communications that support trust and participation, especially across local government and regulated sectors.

Coordinated communications delivery

When you need things out the door, I take care of it. Social media, newsletters, signage, or print materials. I make sure your message is on-brand, on time, and effective.
