Work history
PlannerSony Music UK
I take sole responsibility for planning across the largest frontline record label in the UK (RCA / Epic Records) working to improve the effectiveness of global artist campaigns. Planning is a new discipline in the business and it has been my job to lead its introduction by demonstrating its value and getting people excited by it. I work across all aspects of the strategic marketing process: pitching for new business, uncovering consumer and market insights, developing artist positionings, writing marketing plans and managing the execution of creative output.
I have worked on campaigns for many UK and international artists, including Kodaline, Meghan Trainor, Olly Murs, Paloma Faith, Pharrell Williams, Snoop Dogg, Van Morrison and Usher.
