Gioconda Beekman – Communications Consultant

I am a senior communications consultant offering a combination of strategic thinking and practical ‘hands-on’ expertise.

With a proven track record in building strong relationships, I am recognised by clients and colleagues as a trusted consultant with strong commercial acumen. My intuitive understanding of business drivers and challenges enable me to create communications programmes that deliver value and support business strategy.

I work with business and communications leaders in a number of ways. Specifically I can:

  • act as a strategic sounding board in relation to reputational issues.
  • advise on approaches to effectively communicate changing business priorities.
  • develop communications plans to support the implementation of new business initiatives.
  • support existing communications teams as an extra resource.

I’ve supported companies of all shapes and sizes, with different cultures and challenges, across a variety of industry sectors and continents, including pharmaceutical manufacturing company Lonza, telco organisations AT&T and Huawei, Tata Consultancy Services, University of Bristol, ABP Foods, Symington’s and the World Steel Association.

If you’re looking for communications support, or need some additional resource in your team, please do get in touch for a chat. I’m open to working on a project basis, or as part of a longer term partnership, depending on the business need.
