James S Forrest Email and Phone Number

With over 10 years of experience in sales, I am passionate about building high performing business partnerships. I’ve founded two companies, winning Welsh Start Up of the Year as well as Young Entrepreneur of the Year at the Welsh Business Awards, leading a team of 6 to turn over more than £1 million within 2 years of trading. My current role at Meltwater is to lead a time within the Cardiff & Dublin offices to achieve growth both locally and regionally. I have a strong understanding of how data can be used to better inform corporate decision-making, including competitive intelligence, consumer insights, audience segmentation, trend-spotting, industry insights, and measuring organisational performance. Meltwater empowers companies with a suite of solutions that spans media, social, consumer, and sales intelligence. By analyzing ~1 billion pieces of content each day and transforming them into vital insights, Meltwater unlocks the competitive edge to drive results. With 27,000 global customers, 50 offices across six continents, and 2,300 employees, Meltwater is the industry partner of choice for global brands making an impact.Outside of work, I'm a father to Mila, a dog Dad to Nala and nearly a husband to Anna. You'll likely find me hiking with our Cockerspaniel running miles ahead while I slog it out carrying baby Mila. Other than that, you can wake me up any time to watch the F1 or a good boxing match!You can learn more about Meltwater by clicking on the links in the ‘Featured’ section. I’m just a message away if I can be of assistance.
