I worked closely with Lisa for a number of years at RPS, whose insight and approach were fundamental to the success of our positioning in the Energy sector. Particular examples can be found in Offshore Wind, CCUS and O&G. Her can-do attitude, positive approach and expert-level standard of work have been critical to our successes over the years. Always supportive and always respected.
Mark Houston
Managing Director, Energy Transition, GHD
(Mark and I worked together at RPS/Tetra Tech)
Lisa is a first-class strategic marketing director who converts theory into action and has a natural feel for developing the 'personality' of a business. She is adept in quickly grasping the fundamentals of a business, even if it is not one she has worked within before, and what separates great from good in the particular sector that business operates within. Lisa is commercially oriented and uses marketing techniques to position a business for growth from both a market identification and penetration strategy point of view. As well as being a fantastic professional, Lisa is also a thoroughly decent colleague to work with.
Andy Kirchin
Director, Low Carbon Solutions, GHD
(Andy and I worked together at RPS/Tetra Tech)
Lisa's enthusiasm, vision and work ethic are infectious and motivating. She is able to cut through a lot of information in the fast moving Energy sector and develop a clear line of direction and make it happen. Lisa's ability to understand and assimilate cross discipline details has made it so easy to work with her.
She makes you feel heard and supported, a set of unique skills, as well as showing and educating us techie's on the real value of brilliant marketing.
Karen Dalton
Technical Director, RPS
(Karen and I worked together at RPS/Tetra Tech)
When I had the pleasure of working with Lisa, she was responsible for providing strategic direction to multiple marketing campaigns designed to support the expansion of our offshore wind business.
Lisa was instrumental in changing the way the company approached marketing and brand positioning in this space and was a key part of us ultimately achieving our growth objectives.
Along the way Lisa has always been a pleasure, and a lot of fun, to work with.
Alun Williams
Global Offshore Renewables Director, GHD
(Alun and I worked together at RPS/Tetra Tech)
Lisa is always collaborative and passionate. One of Lisa's greatest strengths is her willingness and ability to understand a business from bottom to top and put herself in the shoes of everyone she works with to ensure she is providing the support needed at all times.
She is one of these people who can shift from strategy to tactical implementation with ease.
Glenys Fogarty
Head of Marketing, Serv
(Glenys and I worked together at AECOM and Coffey International)
One of Lisa's strengths is her technical background which meant that she understood our services quickly and was able to develop appropriate messaging and marketing campaigns. She is skilled at explaining and demonstrating the value of marketing to the business to secure much needed buy-in. Of most value however is Lisa's attitude. She is experienced, hard working and collaborative and can be dealing in strategy one minute and operational matters the next. Above all I most enjoyed her terrific sense of humour. I would highly recommend Lisa and would jump at the chance to work with her again.

Marketing that’s grounded in your reality – not just theory
I’m Lisa Elliott, and I founded LJE Marketing to help technically minded consultants cut through the noise and grow their business with marketing that fits.

My story
I’ve worked in the field. I’ve worked in the boardroom. And I’ve sat in your seat.
Before I was a marketer, I was a field technician – boots on the ground, not behind a desk. That experience still shapes how I work today.
I’ve spent over 30 years working with engineering and environmental businesses – agency side, in-house, and in leadership roles across Australia and the UK. I know what it means to balance commercial realities with technical integrity.
And I know how hard it is to market your work when the work is complex. That’s why I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all strategies. Instead, I work with you to uncover what matters – then build strategy and content that are true to you and deliver results.
If you want a flashy sales funnel, I’m probably not your person. But if you want strategic support from someone who gets your world – I can help.
What I actually do (besides just 'marketing')
I help you build a marketing foundation that does three things:
-
Clarifies your value
-
Communicates it with confidence
-
Attracts the right clients – consistently
That might mean:
-
A marketing strategy that gives you focus and structure
-
A website that works harder for you
-
Messaging that connects with your audience
-
Content that builds authority
-
Campaigns that feel like you – just sharper
It’s about helping you grow sustainably, without losing what makes your business unique.
Why clients work with me – and stay with me
Clients choose LJE Marketing because I combine big-picture strategy with real-world empathy. I speak their language. I’m not afraid to challenge ideas, but I always stay grounded in what’s achievable, practical, and aligned to their values.
Some of the things that surprise people?
-
I have structured processes (even creative ones).
-
I value collaboration but will take the lead when you’re swamped.
-
I focus on organic marketing – so you don’t have to keep throwing money at ads.
-
I care about outcomes more than vanity metrics.
Marketing shouldn't feel like a mystery. It should feel clear, purposeful – and even be fun.

My values and vibe
Authenticity. Strategy.
A little Australian humour.
I’m not trying to build a big agency. I’m not chasing awards. I’m here to help good businesses grow in ways that feel real, grounded, and effective.
I believe in:
But what’s it like to work with me?
I’ve worked with some brilliant people over the years.
Here’s what they’ve shared – about how I show up, the value I bring, and the difference I make in a team.
