• Content Marketer

  • Jan 2022 - Present

  Creating content to help to shift company culture across the private sector with a software that allows employees to make their employers aware of or anonymously report any form of bullying, discrimination or harassment they experience or see happening, from the “small”, “low level” incidents all the way to the more obvious and overt. This allows employers to keep an eye on any worrying trends that are going on within their company so they can make actionable changes, whether the person made an anonymous or named report. Through this job I am aiming to make sure others do not go through similar experiences I have or worse, giving them a platform to voice their concerns and work somewhere that actively wants to put their people first before profits. Content I create and market includes blogs, social media posts, videos, graphics, reports, webinars and events. Show less
