May 2016 - Jul 2021
As editor of frankie magazine, I oversaw all editorial output for frankie press and its brand extensions, including calendars and diaries, podcasts, one-shot publications and the annual Good Stuff creative awards. On a day-to-day basis, I might have been strategising editorial direction, commissioning content, writing, editing, proofreading, working with our designers on layouts, managing budgets, or chatting with the sales team on the best way to deliver a client campaign. I was also involved with frankie’s online and social media output, and creative goings-on like product styling for photoshoots, podcast hosting and video presenting. Show less
