Proud to be a new Nellie

19th January 2012 / All, Nellie News

Hello, my name is Nick King and I have just been appointed as the new account manager here at Nellie PR.

I have more years experience than I care to remember in PR and marketing, particularly in the business to business side of communications. Prior to this role, I worked as the PR and Media Manager at the East Midlands Development Agency, focusing particularly on the promotion of their support services for business.

In other positions I have held, I have managed clients, including Christian Salvesen, Scottish Courage, BASF and Courtaulds, as well as local businesses including RH Freight, Fraser Brown Solicitors, Coldseal and also several businesses in the healthcare sector. In addition to PR, I also specialise in writing search engine optimised copy for websites, so if this is a service you may also require I am happy to help.

After a couple of discussions with Ellen Carroll just before Christmas, it became clear that my skills matched the profile of the kind of person she was looking for to help develop the business, and I was itching to get back into the cut and thrust of a PR agency, so here I am and I’m really looking forward to working with the clients, suppliers and all of the other people who work with Nellie.

Outside of work, I am very keen on sport, particularly racquet sports like badminton and squash, I also play touch rugby (quite badly) and also try my hand at fencing, so if you are ever up for a game of anything, let me know. I also used to work as a party DJ, and if you upset me I will be forced to put an annoying cheesy old song into your head for the rest of the day!

Please feel free to drop me a line if there’s anything that you want me to help you with or just want some advice about. Also, if you want a game of badminton or squash to work off some of the excesses from the festive period, I’m happy to oblige, because I need to do that too!
