Maybe your organisation is navigating change and the narrative hasn't kept up. Maybe you know what you want to say, but not quite how to say it in a way that lands. Or maybe you're focused on growth and need a narrative that's equal to your ambition.
Story Communications provides strategic B2B communications counsel for leaders and organisations with ambitious goals - building and protecting reputations, sharpening strategic narrative, and earning attention where it matters most.
Narrative intelligence, big-picture thinking and precise execution - cutting through complexity, always with the audience at the centre - across marketing communications, professional services, publishing and science-led AI and biotech startups.
Good communications counsel comes from experience - listening carefully, synthesising complex perspectives and translating them into messaging that is impactful, enduring and precisely right for the audience. Over two decades of advising complex organisations has shaped how I work and what I bring to every client engagement.
As Chief Communications Officer at McCann Worldgroup, UK & Europe, working across 32 markets, I helped shape the narrative of one of the world's most recognised advertising networks, contributing to a decade of growth and recognition: Cannes Lions Titanium and Grand Prix, Effie Europe Agency Network of the Year, Campaign Best Creative Network in Europe.
My earlier career spans management consultancy communications at BearingPoint - translating complex technical subject matter into BBC and Financial Times coverage - and, most recently, senior advisory work in science-led AI and biotech. I am a Chartered Member of the PRCA and based in London, working across the UK and internationally.
A rare combination of strategic thinking, exceptional operator and deeply trusted partner.
