About David
I have 30 years experience as a journalist, mainly covering the insurance industry, financial services and politics but also writing on a wide range of other subjects. In addition, I have a broad experience of editorial management in large and small publishing companies, launching and re-launching publications, brand development through the launch of conferences, awards and websites and of overseeing production and design services.
I have extensive experience of re-aligning content creation and delivery for the modern, multi-platform, mobile world, especially working with publishing teams that need to move from a print-centric environment to the web first world of today. This includes a wide knowledge and understanding of the role social media plays in modern media.
I was also responsible for developing video and audio content for Incisive Media’s websites through two top quality in-house studios.
Alongside this work I have developed a wide range of highly effective training courses that not only build knowledge and skills but inspire the participants to use them.
