I'm helping Workday's customers in the U.K. and Ireland to supercharge their growth, with our smart finance and HR software supporting their decision-making. I love learning their key challenges and opportunities, and figuring out how we can partner with them to achieve their goals, both on the company level and as individual employees to help them excel in their role.

Titanbay specialises in unlocking private market investments for investment advisors, wealth managers, and private banks. I was the social media marketing lead for the company, raising brand awareness at a crucial time in the company's development. Through carefully-targeted social media campaigns I generated hundreds of leads for Titanbay's sales teams to have conversations with and ultimately give them access to some of the best private market funds available today.

Fidelity is one of Britain's largest asset managers. Here I worked to tell its story on social media channels in engaging and informative ways, helping Financial Advisors and other intermediaries to understand the value Fidelity can bring to them and their clients. This included empowering more than 50 Fidelity colleagues in the sales team to use social media to drive conversations with clients on social and build credibility with their audiences. I managed a large digital marketing budget and collaborated with teams across the business to tell the Fidelity story to more people than ever before.

Virgin Money UK PLC serves 6.6m UK customers across its retail and business banking arms. I joined the business as CYBG PLC (Clydesdale and Yorkshire Bank) shortly before its acquisition of Virgin Money. In this Media Relations role, I had the privilege of acting as the B2B media lead for the business bank, with the aim of positively shaping the perception of the bank amongst small and medium-sized businesses across the UK. I developed large-scale PR campaigns to secure more than 60+ pieces of coverage in regional and national titles, including The Scotsman, The Herald and The Telegraph. I also led the delivery of the bank's largest ever media partnership, 'Taking Care of Business', with activations in The Telegraph, Manchester Evening News (and other Reach plc titles) and on Global Radio (Heart Radio). Working closely with colleagues in the sales team, I wrote awards submissions and promoted customer case studies through social media campaigns to improve perception of the bank's support for UK SMEs.I organised media interviews for the banks' senior leaders, as well as media training days to help sharpen their skills at dealing with print and broadcast journalists, alongside controlling and allocating a high six-figure PR and paid social media budget. With support from specialist B2B comms and marketing agencies, I also delivered events at the bank's flagship Manchester store in collaboration with Tech Nation and Manchester Evening News, sourcing speakers, guests and journalists. Our campaigns resulted in a significant uplift in brand recall and sentiment, leading to the acquisition of new business banking customers.

After completing my Masters degree I was fortunate to join Share Radio – the UK’s first national radio station dedicated to business, finance and money. I put together daily running orders, provided broadcast packages (short pieces) for the station’s daily ‘Investment Perspectives’ segment, booked and interviewed guests and recorded live broadcast news bulletins. The experience of working in a busy newsroom was one I'll never forget.
