Joel Reed | About Me

Joel Reed — Freelance Marketing Consultant

I’m Joel Reed, a Freelance Marketing Consultant, Designer, and Developer, based in beautiful Shropshire. I provide freelance marketing services to help organisations thrive!

I have over 15 years of professional experience and specialise in supporting education and telco brands, but I work with all types of companies to help supercharge their growth.

After graduating with First Class Honours in Interactive Media, I worked for two of the UK’s top universities spending nine wonderful years in Higher Education designing and developing digital solutions, while also supporting high-level marketing activities.

I then moved into telecoms for four years, where I worked for the UK’s largest independent full fibre infrastructure builder, supporting B2B marketing activities within the wholesale channel. I managed a portfolio of over twenty clients, delivering tailored marketing strategies that helped our team to generate over £2M in TCV.

Following this, I joined an award-winning digital learning agency, based in London, leading their marketing activities, which included content development, digital marketing, web development, direct marketing, event management, and stakeholder engagement.

I began freelancing to take on fresh challenges and to work with a variety of different organisations. Working with people and using my varied skills to help companies thrive is what I love to do.

I’ve had the pleasure and good fortune to support some incredible organisations, delivering positive and transformative change through my digital solutions and marketing consultancy.
