Richard Brown

A PR professional specialising in public affairs and technology, I've spent 10 years working across journalism, content management, online marketing, community engagement and now communications account management. I'm most excited about my digital work, having project managed both the online user experience and associated offline marketing for many of the Environment Agency's major campaigns, including Flood Maps and rod licence sales. I combine a strong understanding of what works successfully online, with an ability to explain it in clear, vibrant English. My media and journalism experience make me perfect for any PR work, and my years of account management have taught me to hone a client strategy and execute it, both myself and through others. My understanding of the political arena makes me perfect for public affairs issues, especially those involving communities and local politicians in making decisions. I've worked on many contentious issues at the Environment Agency, and am used to creating a positive outcome from what was initially a difficult situation.
