What got Ellen started

Ellen’s journey into media began in an unexpected way. After completing a degree in Fashion Design, she launched a sustainable clothing brand during the COVID-19 pandemic. Running her own business gave her first-hand experience of every aspect of building a brand, from product development and operations to marketing and customer acquisition. As she developed social media strategies, worked with micro influencers and promoted her products online, she discovered a passion for media and advertising. That experience ultimately led her into the industry, where she secured her first role at Publicis and began building a career in media planning and buying.

Ellen is excellent at

• Driving effective media strategies. Ellen plans and buys across paid social and digital channels to maximise performance and return on investment.
• Supporting purpose-led businesses. She helps environmentally conscious and B Corp organisations align commercial goals with meaningful brand values.
• Optimising campaigns for continuous improvement. Through detailed analysis and performance insights, Ellen continually refines activity to increase efficiency and impact.

About Ellen

Ellen has five years of experience across media planning and buying, specialising in paid social and digital channels. During her career, she has worked with a diverse portfolio of clients spanning retail, FMCG, beauty and luxury sectors, including brands such as Asda, Beam Suntory, Dr Organic and organisations within the LVMH group. Her experience across both large agency networks and independent agencies has given her a strong understanding of how to deliver effective media strategies for businesses of all sizes.

More recently, Ellen’s work has focused on environmentally conscious and B Corp brands, helping organisations achieve meaningful growth while staying true to their values. One of her proudest achievements involved helping a client with limited service bookings transform their always-on media strategy. By restructuring activity and improving PPC performance, she not only increased conversions but also delivered greater efficiency year-on-year, leading the client to double their media investment the following quarter. Ellen combines analytical thinking with commercial awareness and a passion for purposeful marketing, helping clients achieve measurable results through intelligent media planning.
