About me
Andrew Lamberti: an accredited life coach and experienced line manager of marketing and communications professionals.
I have more than 30 years of experience working in marketing and communications, including 24 years of leading and line-managing teams delivering campaigns and projects across the public and private sectors.
Over the years, I have overseen product launches, managed PR crises, organised stakeholder events, relaunched websites, handled sensitive internal communications issues, run digital campaigns, and presented strategic advice to senior leadership teams.
Of all my career achievements, the one that has given me the greatest satisfaction has been seeing the people I managed grow and develop professionally, especially those in junior roles or taking their first steps into management. This is why I retrained as an accredited life coach: to use my experience to help more people make the most of their skills, knowledge and strengths in marketing, comms and PR roles. I am passionate about helping people build successful and rewarding careers in a way that also supports a healthy work-life balance.
My coaching combines real-world leadership experience of the rewards and challenges of working in this profession with a supportive, structured approach that helps people think clearly, grow professionally and take positive action.
"The best manager ever!"

Bespoke coaching for people working in marketing and communications
I offer tailored one-to-one coaching built around your specific career and work-related goals. We usually begin by identifying what really matters to you, and what matters less. From there, we define the wider career or work-life-related goals you want to work towards.
We then break this down into a series of shorter-term priorities and practical next steps. What we cover in each session is up to you, but common challenges in this profession include:
- Setting realistic marketing and communications objectives that reflect what is actually within your control
- Managing the pressure of being expected to deliver results constantly
- Explaining marketing and communications concepts to non-specialists in a way that leads to informed decisions
- Managing complexity and ambiguity while still producing clear, concise and consistent organisational communication
- Handling high-profile media enquiries and PR crises with confidence, including working with senior leaders on key messages and responses
- Knowing when to take a strategic approach and when a tactical response is needed
- Having difficult conversations about communications issues with colleagues outside the marketing or communications teams including CEOs and other senior leaders
- Responding to shifting priorities and communicating effectively during organisational change
- Managing direct reports in a supportive way while maintaining focus on delivery and performance
- Responding to AI and other technologies while continuing to show the value that skilled human professionals bring to marketing and communications activity within organisations
- Evaluating the impact of your work and demonstrating it clearly to managers and stakeholders.
Investing in coaching with me gives you the time and space to talk through challenges like these with someone who genuinely understands them, in a safe and confidential setting. I know first-hand what this profession can demand and how, at times, it can affect your work-life balance and mental health.
Unlike traditional training, coaching is a form of professional development tailored entirely to your needs. We focus on what matters most to you.
Coaching can be genuinely transformative: an opportunity for self-discovery, development and growth. This is especially true when the coaching is tailored to the work you actually do.
Please do get in touch today to find out more. There is no obligation and I am always happy to have an initial conversation about how I might be able to help.
Choose the coaching programme that suits you
We will begin with an open discussion about your needs and how coaching could help you move forward. This takes the form of a free, no-obligation telephone call.
As we work together, we will identify clear goals and practical next steps to help you achieve them. As your coach, I will not tell you what to do - that is up to you. What I will do is help you think clearly and create positive change in your career and working life.
I offer three individual coaching options to suit different needs. Whichever you choose, I will support you to become the marketing or communications professional you want to be.
