Our peopleWe are a small company so we all turn our hand to a fair amount, but, with loads of experience within the company and a team of talented partners behind us, small is perfectly formed. media4changeAnn Durrant - Managing Director Before working at media4change Ann did trains, maths and drugs - in that order. A varied career has taken her from working as an engineer on the railway through to starting M4C - making stops as a maths lecturer and project manager at AstraZeneca on the way. Ann is a regular visitor to the Primary Health Care Institute (IPASC) in the north-eastern part of the Democratic Republic of Congo where she has run a participative video project and assisted with the admin and management of the business. Ann is an excellent project manager with a clear view of the big picture combined with attention to detail. Ann is responsible for the operational side of media4change and also goes out into the world talking about media4change and what we do. Using her lecturing experience Ann also delivers our 'educate' offerings. Ann runs races dressed as santa, knows all the nominal codes in Sage and tries to teach Alex and Katy maths against their will. Despite the fact she is the boss, Ann gets told what to do by Katy and Alex. Alex McKay - Project Designer Alex has experience working in both the public sector and a large multinational pharmaceutical company. Just before joining media4change she took a year out to travel the world, or at least a bit of it, including a stint looking after parrots in a Bolivian animal sanctuary. Alex works on a wide variety of projects tending towards copy led projects. She wrote the 2008 Provident Financial and Brother reports and conducted research for the SABMiller and the Nationwide reports. She also works with HiS on their CSR programme and designed IPF's big green sticky feet. Alex is actually a middle aged man trapped in a younger, female body; as such she likes drinking real ales in comfortable pubs, going to the theatre and listening to radio 4. Katy Wardle - Project Designer Katy was fresh from completing a degree in Geography at Bangor when she joined media4change. She developed an interest in sustainability while at university and did her dissertation in Community Sustainable Development. As well as working at media4change, Katy volunteers at Cre8, a local youth charity, one day a week. Katy works on a wide variety of projects tending towards design led projects. She designed SPL's website and logo, works with Astra Signs on their corporate responsibility strategy and takes the lead with work relating to SABMiller's sustainable development management system. Katy used to have a life, then she bought a house in need of lots of renovations, so until that is done, she decorates. Our partners from local companiesSarah Pratt - Sustainability Strategy and Reporting Sarah has over 13 years of experience in environmental management, sustainability and corporate responsibility. Sarah's skills and experience ensure that clients receive pragmatic, practical advice on strategy development, stakeholder engagement, programme implementation, communication and reporting in line with international reporting and disclosure standards. Pete Nolan - IS0 14001 and 18001 consultant Pete has worked in the environmental sector for many years. He is very experienced in environmental management and has published a number of papers on the subject. Pete works with media4change providing support and advice to businesses wanting to achieve ISO 14001 or 18001 accreditation. Mike Thorpe - Graphic Designer Mike has over 30 years experience working for a national charity, an advertising studio, lecturing in art and design and as a freelance designer covering magazine and editorial work, leaflets, posters, corporate identity projects, CD design, photography and illustration. Mike's great skill is his ingenuity; he is able to take any message and present it in an intriguing and yet pleasing way. Dean Grice - Web Consultancy and Development For our web based projects we work in partnership with Dean Grice, a local and like-minded web consultant and developer. Dean has over 10 years experience in the creation, design and development of Internet and Intranet based websites and web services. With a reputation for quality, professionalism and attention to detail, Dean works closely with media4change providing high quality custom solutions for our customers. John Hartridge and team - Video Production John and his team have many years experience delivering effective and engaging videos and multimedias for leading businesses. They can take complex corporate messages and turn them into highly viewable programmes. This is often achieved by involving and featuring ordinary people - staff and customers, and allowing them to express themselves in their own words. |
