About me

Since January 2008 I have worked as Conceptual Copywriter and Senior Account Executive for a creative agency. I have conceptualised, written, edited and project managed marketing campaigns on behalf of clients including Nationwide Building Society, BMW, National Grid, Syngenta, Transport for London and London Safety Camera Partnership.

My marketing experience embraces online-, email- and printed marketing campaigns including leaflets brochures, UK-wide competitions, advertorial features and advertisements for educational publications, press releases, email campaigns, online news stories, blogs, tweets and TV advertisements, as well as promotional events.

I have also written numerous successful award entries to promote my company and its clients: International Visual Communications Awards (winner), IVCA Clarion Awards (winner), Children and Young People Now Awards (winner), Education Resources Awards (finalist); Prince Michael Awards (highly commended).

My current company makes full use of my wide range of skills - copy/creative writing, editing, concept/content development, project/event management, photography, video creation/directing, proofreading, voiceovers and music creation - as well as my knowledge as key educationalist. In addition, I have worked for many years as a freelance travel photojournalist and educational writer for a range of magazines in the UK and abroad.
I find my current role both rewarding and highly enjoyable but am now looking to focus on copywriting full-time, ultimately moving to a senior copywriting level. Having read the job specification, much of my experience is directly transferrable but I am also enthusiastic about developing new skills.
