After achieving her degree and post graduate qualification (Cambridge Academy) in Marketing, Jodie went on to work as a PR consultant, both on client and agency side for a wide range of brands such as Altec Lansing, The RNLI, Organix, BT, Twenga and Wyke Farms.

In 2003, Jodie founded Connected PR, an independent global PR agency, together with her sister Paris, which has grown from a labour of love into a global operation with an international network spanning Europe with offices in France and US. Today the company manages a wide portfolio of clients in the technology, marketing and food industries, including Plantronics, Altec Lansing, Zanox, Gyration, Twenga, Madbid.com, Wyke Farms, Leskol and The Juice Doctor.

“It is no surprise that Jodie has been included,” said Paris Welton, Partner at Connected PR. “She has the rare ability to manage numerous projects simultaneously, combining high-level strategic thinking and planning with creativity and on-the-ground ideas – ensuring great results and happy clients all round!”
