The people who make it all happen
Michelle Ewen
Creative Ideas Engine
Over the past 20 years, I have generated more than £1m worth of free publicity and written every kind of winning award entry – including an MBE.
Having graduated with First Class Honours in Journalism & Script Writing, I worked for the national press – exposing love rats and scandals in The Mirror, The People, Chat, Take a Break and many more true-life magazines!
Aged 25, I then became Commercial Features Editor for Guardian Series Newspapers – specialising in persuasive copywriting for businesses.
Later, as Public Relations Specialist at an NHS Trust, I recruited Stephen Fry to front our ‘Stamp Out Stigma’ campaign; advised the Board; and empowered patients to share their lived experience of mental health with the media.
Key Skill: Writing kickass press releases!
Christian Ewen
Pitching & Proofing King
Aged 25, I broke the record for the youngest ever Press Officer at the FTSE100 company that hired me as an official spokesperson. I wrote press statements for Sky News and the BBC; delivered award-winning PR campaigns; and regularly secured broadcast and print coverage worth six-figure sums in equivalent advertising value.
I originally started out as a Commercial Features Reporter for Guardian Series Newspapers – writing advertorials and lifestyle features – after studying Journalism at LJMU.
Later, I worked as a Publisher for five years at one of the world’s leading non-fiction military history publishing houses in the English language. I took a project management role – proofreading and copy-editing manuscripts to prepare them for publication.
Key Skill: Adding that final touch of class to everything we produce.
Raymond Reddington
Company Secretary
I was found wandering on the streets of Rochdale and then transferred to Warrington Cats Protection Adoption Centre. After a Method acting performance worthy of Brando, I conned my parents into choosing me at the shelter. Named after a fictional criminal mastermind on Sky TV’s The Blacklist, I now only show affection on my own terms – and mostly when motivated by food!
As Company Secretary, my key responsibilities include making unscheduled appearances on Zoom calls; walking across keyboards at inopportune moments; posing for social media; and eating up the company profits in snacks.
In my spare time I like to defend my precious territory and ignore all my expensive toys.
Key Skill: Mediating when my parents have ‘creative differences’.
