• Direct Marketing Coordinator

  • Mar 2004 - May 2007

  This was both an exciting and challenging time to join Greenpeace. The focus of this role was to reduce the risk of a single regular giving acquisition strategy and supplier, which delivered 90% of the organisation’s income. This involved setting up and managing a high-performing in-house face-to-face team as well as diversifying the donor acquisition strategy towards lead generation and conversion. During my time at Greenpeace, I also took part in protests and non-violent direct action (NVDA), attended leadership training and international fundraising skill-shares as well as volunteering for and participating in Greenpeace fundraising and supporter engagement events.
