B2B tech copywriter turning complexity into clarity
In B2B tech, clarity is a competitive advantage.
I help technology-oriented businesses turn complex products, platforms and propositions into clear, compelling content that decision-makers actually want to read… and act on.
With more than a decade in agencies and over 12 years working independently, I specialise in B2B technology, infrastructure and regulated markets. My work sits at the intersection of strategy, storytelling and commercial impact, shaping narratives that build credibility, influence buying decisions and support growth.
I’m often brought in when the subject matter is complex, the audience is sceptical and the message needs to land first time.
What my clients say
“James brings clarity, agility and insight, navigating multiple stakeholders with ease and consistently delivering high-quality work.”
Director of International Marketing, Accruent
“A highly reliable partner who understands complex B2B environments and delivers content that supports real business outcomes.”
CEO, Marketpoint Recall
“James combines strategic thinking with strong editorial instincts. He’s easy to work with and trusted across the business.”
Senior marketing lead, nShift
What I do
I work with B2B technology companies, scale-ups and enterprise brands to create content that informs, persuades and builds trust.
Typical projects include:
- Thought leadership and executive by-lined articles
- White papers, reports and long-form insight
- Case studies and customer stories
- Core messaging and website content
- Media relations and coverage generation
- PR-led content designed for external publication
I’m comfortable working directly with founders, CMOs, technical leaders and subject-matter experts translating deep expertise into language that resonates with commercial, technical and non-technical audiences alike.
Sectors & experience
My background is firmly B2B, with a strong focus on complex and regulated environments, including:
- Enterprise software and SaaS
- Retail, ecommerce and logistics technology
- Data centres, infrastructure and cloud
- Cybersecurity, privacy and trust
- Defence, public sector and regulated industries
