Marketing Matters’ PR & Digital Team Expand
19/10/2010
Marketing Matters, the Poole-based integrated creative agency has further strengthened its team with two new recruits. Tim Burt, 37, joins the company as Senior Web Developer and Sam Maskell, 21, as PR Account Executive for a six-month work placement.
Tim, who lives in a home he designed and built in Okeford Fitzpaine, North Dorset, is technically minded and is always on the look out for challenges to solve. Before joining Marketing Matters he worked as a freelancer, travelling around the country, designing and developing computer-based control systems, before moving on to website development and online campaign creation at a company in Devon.
Now working closer to home, Tim’s role includes updating clients’ websites, building new sites and planning web development using new technology. He will be using his skills and experiences across a range of the agency’s clients, including Sunseeker International, charity Diverse Abilities Plus and property developer Royalton.
In his spare time, Tim likes to restore Land Rovers. He drives to work in a 38-year-old vehicle and is currently restoring a 1967 model. He also likes to compete in off-road racing and is currently in the process of building a new race truck for next year’s season.
Sam joins the agency after recently graduating from The University of Winchester, with a BA (Hons) degree in Journalism and Media Studies. Having previously completed short-term placements with other PR and marketing companies located in Hampshire, Sam is looking to expand his knowledge and experience of the industry by completing a longer-term placement, closer to home.
Born and raised in Dorset, Sam was keen to work at Marketing Matters as it is one of the larger agencies in Dorset and regularly offers work experience to young graduates looking to carve out a career in the PR, marketing and digital sectors. An avid Tottenham Hotspur supporter, Sam spends all of his time away from the office either playing or watching football, and is sure to join in a few insightful discussions on the sport with his new colleagues, especially rival Chelsea fan Jenny Pearce, who is a Senior PR Account Executive at the company!
Andy Legg, Joint Managing Director at Marketing Matters, said: “We have recently won several new clients over a diverse range of industry sectors including marine, property, charity, and retail, therefore Tim and Sam have joined the team at an exciting time.”
Marketing Matters is an integrated creative agency with specialist division for creative, digital and PR. Based in Poole, Dorset the agency has been established for over 20 years.
