JENNY LESLIE, SENIOR ACCOUNT MANAGER

Jen is a Scottish expat, who has been living and working in New Zealand since March this year. With more than nine years’ experience in a marketing and branding environment, she has experience in varying industries – from public relations to craft beer. Jen also has an Honours degree in International Retail Marketing, specialising in branding, and thrives for creative communications.

Jen has a real love for travel, and has explored the Middle East and India, and trekked in the Himalayas.

Now, she is excited for what her New Zealand adventure brings!

WHAT'S THE ONE......

… fun fact you want people to know about you?

I’ve previously worked as a personal fashion stylist and can do colour profiling.

… aspect you enjoy most about your current role?

Working with all of the departments across the business is awesome, for example being involved in the creative development, through to managing the production process to final output. Whether it is seeing client projects on a billboard or a Facebook video, seeing the project through from start to finish is not only an exciting process, but super rewarding.

… goal you'd like to achieve in the next year?

I’d like to run another half marathon. I haven’t done one in years and am hoping to sign up to another and beat my time from the last one (I was much younger then, so it could be a bold goal to set!)

… thing you can't live without?

English breakfast tea. I’m an absolute fiend to a ‘builder’s brew’ to the point that I take my own teabags on holiday with me. I don’t know if I’m ashamed to admit that or not!.
