About Eleni Chalkidou

LLB- University of Law, LondonMA Journalism- Westminster UniversityI am a polyglot ink slinger with demonstrated ability to turn business objectives into successful communication strategies and effective PR tactics. Passionate about law and how its application can help make the world a better place.A little about me:An award winning, Greek-German business journalist and Editor, I started my career in Germany at national broadsheet paper WAZ as an intern. Came to London with a scholarship and joined the BBC as an online Journalist following an MA in Journalism under Chris Horrie. Experience: Corporate Finance Magazine, The Lawyer, Euromoney and later helped senior positions at legal directories IFLR 1000 and powerhouse Chambers Publishing. On the Board of EEMUA as a Non-Executive Director.Having spent a number of years with law firms and also headed strategic communications at large publishing houses, I am at ease with leading complex, multijurisdictional communications strategies on behalf of external stakeholders, including for organisations such as IBM, Ofcom, Google, BT, MasterCard and SAP. Joined the Chartered Trading Standards Institute (CTSI) in May 2017 as Director of Communications where she led internal and external communications strategies, working with Governments and consumer law experts such as the CMA, WHICH?, BSI, BEIS and OPSS. I also held the post of Editor-in-Chief for the Journal of Trading Standards and its online companion, JoTS, both CTSI publications.In my spare time I volunteer within UK Sierra Leonean communities to bring positive change to families that were affected by the civil war and to combat FGM in West Africa. Fraudsters cringe me out, and I am passionate and committed to protecting those most vulnerable against doorstep crime and scams.Bonus: Well-versed in influencing on social media platforms and fluent in five languages including English, German, Greek, Spanish and Krio (spoken in Sierra Leone). Plus as smattering of Italian, Japanese and Dutch to the mix.In my spare time I enjoy a good book and am known to eat philosophy for breakfast. It is no secret that I find refuge in writing, in intriguing political and societal debates with my better half, and in training for my black belt in Goju Ryu Karate.
