4 years in February, although I've had 3 different jobs within that time!

Why Bensons?

I love sleeping so working for Bensons suits me well! Joking aside, I find sleep science fascinating and I enjoy educating our customers (and myself) on the power of sleep. The Bensons brand is constantly evolving too and it's been a pleasure bringing it to life over various channels.

What do you specialise in?

Brand communications, mainly. This includes everything from brand identity to charity and corporate partnerships. I also look after our influencer strategy and dip my toe into social media every now and again.
