I'm offering
Hi… I’m Caroline. A copywriter, content director and social media writer with over a dozen years' experience in advertising.
My friends think it’s like an episode of Mad Men so I crush their dreams by explaining it’s less whiskey in cut glass tumblers at lunch time and more inhaling a Pret baguette ‘al desko’ at break neck speed.
I trained as a journalist before falling into advertising, a career choice some of my journo friends still call “going over to the dark side”, and found my niche deconstructing briefs and writing every and any sort of copy.
I’m a strategic thinker who’s dedicated to craft and am a happy hybrid of creative thinking and strategic nouse so tend to look at briefs holistically. I love seeing life flow into ideas and collaborating to find clever solutions to the trickiest of briefs.
