Bio
Declan Austin
Hazel is a great team player who exudes calmness, confidence and the ability to take on the on-coming train and turn it into the light at the end of the tunnell. I worked with Hazel on some large exhibitions and company events and always knew that she would give 100% and deliver 110%. I am delighted to hear that Hazel has taken the plunge and set up in business - her clients will get good service, enthusiasm and a professional at the helm.

We first worked with Beacon 3 years ago when we were asked to work on a comms project for their annual supplier awards. The first thing that struck me was how professional - as a Marketing Department - Beacon were, and Hazel was no exception. Thorough briefs - remember them?! - and realistic deadlines were all met with glee from myself and my team. Add to this Hazel's willingness to listen to new ideas, understand creative and give great insight meant that we were more than pleased to be on their roster. In the last 3 years our relationship with Beacon - and Hazel in particular - has grown to the point where we were recently entrusted to help produce their flagship comms piece - the annual directory. Despite it's size and stature within the business, Hazel managed to maintain her total grasp on timings and project management of all internal hierarchy at Beacon to ensure a smooth completion to the directory. This was no easy task as it involved creating and establishing a new online data capture system for submissions, co-ordination of 134 suppliers along with 15 national account managers and us too! But to Hazel's credit the project finished as strong as it started. So, be it for marketing knowledge and direction, or for putting my trust in someone to get a big job successfully sorted, I'd have no hesitation in recommending Hazel.
