Move to Medway Council

Tuesday, August 31st, 2004 at 6:14 pm

Hello - welcome to my website.

On my blog I write about marketing, public relations and digital communications. To keep up-to-date with my posts you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed or sign-up to receive blog posts by email.

Thanks for visiting and I hope you find my site useful.

Today I’ve started work at Medway Council in Kent as Marketing and PR Manager.

I’m pleased to have secured an exciting role working within a dynamic communications team. I will manage a small marketing, design and internal communications team.

I am really looking forward to learning more about public sector marketing, and not having to commute to London each day!

For more information view the press release issued by Medway Council about my appointment.

I've been on the web since 2001 and have been blogging about marketing and public relations since January 2006.

I'm currently Head of Marketing at Medway Council as well as a freelance marketing and PR consultant.

The content and opinions expressed on this website are not endorsed by nor reflect the views of any company or organisation I work with.

Very capable manager with great attention to detail. Great fun to work with too. Damon Reynolds

I have always found him knowledgeable, pleasant and professional…I would happily recommend him to anyone needing a professional advisor in the areas of social media, web 2.0 and public sector communications although it’s worth mentioning that his skill set is much wider than that.
