About

Hi there! I'm Kimberley. I love writing, photography, website design, and being creative - in short, everything that makes for a great marketer. I have a comprehensive background in full marketing-mix roles and have experience across various industries in both the public and private sector. I’m a true multitasker and can manage anything from the bigger picture (marketing strategy, research, communications strategy, project management & campaign planning) down to the nitty gritty (copywriting, social media management, graphic design, content management, running campaigns and marketing reporting). I am organised, knowledgeable and tech-savvy. I pride myself on being able to tackle all aspects of a project, and having a good eye for what looks great. I am always interested in helping others and am open to hearing about fun or interesting one-off or short-term projects to get involved in. Contact me on: kimberleydejong@me.com
