As their Head of Design and Content, I worked with the digital, PR, commercial and sport teams to create first-class campaigns, design, editorial and imagery for all channels.
Campaigns included ‘I Am Team GB’ with The National Lottery and ITV, the #BigThankYou at BBC Sports Personality of the Year and Join In’s own ‘Run It’.
Film directed by yours truly, scripted by Paul Allen at Lark Media, produced and designed by Steve Simmonds at Digital Block.

• #BigThankYou trended on Twitter three consecutive years
• Successfully grew highly engaged audiences across email (with industry-leading click and open rates), social media and online
• Co-created the nation’s biggest sports day, I Am Team GB, post-Rio 2016.
