Let the words flow.

Hey, I’m Holly. Senior Copywriter with 8+ years’ experience across jewellery, fashion, beauty and sportswear. I shape how brands speak and craft copy that connects, converts, and cuts through the noise.

Take a look around. Make yourself comfortable.

Where
I’ve Been:

  • Copywriter

    March 2023 – Present

    3+ years as the brand's sole writer, responsible for defining, evolving and owning the tone of voice across every touchpoint, balancing warmth, wit, luxury and substance from international out-of-home campaigns right down to product descriptions.

    Created and maintained copy guidelines. Partnered with channel owners on A/B testing, using performance insights to shape copy that not only engaged, but converted. Explored and integrated AI tools to streamline workflows, sharpen thinking and make better work, faster.

  • Midweight Copywriter

    June 2021 – March 2023

    Spent just shy of 2 years writing for Boden, collaborating with the Senior Copywriter and Head of Copy across all channels and customer-facing touchpoints. Moved seamlessly between brand-building storytelling (monthly catalogues and social captions) and sales-driving moments (Black Friday, Summer Sale, abandoned cart flows).

    Dog-friendly office a definite perk. Tone of voice a privilege to run with.

  • Freelance Copywriter

    Ad Hoc

    Initially brought on to support the brand’s UK launch with a disruptive campaign fronted by GK Barry. Since then, collaborated with the Creative Director to shape concepts before bringing them to life through copy.

  • Copywriter

    April 2019 – May 2021

    Spent 2+ years at Boots’ in-house agency, The B-Hive, working with Client Managers to craft CRM copy for brands including Fenty Beauty, Ole Henriksen, MAC and Lancôme.

    Researched and wrote for the Health & Wellness Hub, liaising with Legal Services and the Chief Pharmacist’s Office to keep content accurate and compliant.

  • Assistant Web Content Writer

    October 2018 – April 2019

    Fresh-faced out of university. Crafted product descriptions for Sports Direct, House of Fraser and Flannels, leaning into the quality and materiality of each product.

  • Freelance Copywriter

    Freelance support on an ad hoc basis across SEO blog content, product descriptions, and product packaging.
