About Annie Veale
My career can be categorised into three main streams of activity –
>> Marketing – with more than 8 years spent working in agency environments, I have worked up from AM positions through to development and most recently DPM roles, a specialism in areas of analysis and SEO, content and campaign -but with true ‘generalist’ capabilities – making me a supportive and knowledgable team leader familiar with agile, waterfall and collaborative deliveries.
I have worked client-side and agency with many corporate and multi-nationals – this experience across digital marketing and DEV with my most recent years specialising in analysis and SEO. I hold certification across areas such as sales management, many google certificates and CPD qualifications within marketing and digital marketing.
>> Foods, Health and Catering have led to numerous Food and Beverage and Hospitality projects and also many roles in this sector to fund some more entrepreneurial projects! I have acquired a plethora of certifications and qualifications in areas of health, fitness, nutrition, and cheffing to name a few!
>> My entrepreneurial works have allowed me to work in many development roles – both DEV and product development, packaging and marketing – very much a start-up mentality with experience through sectors that identify as artisanal, quality, and hand-made.

It can be a difficult task to find a freelancer that is truly able to complement your existing team and bring additional efficiencies to your team – I am confident across a range of specialisms and with the varied range of experience as detailed here – am able to bring specialist knowledge across a number of sectors and specialist service deliveries. This experience spans from 2001 and includes periods working within agencies as well as direct client-side positions, with direct implementation responsibilities as well as co-ordinating and managing agency service
