The people behind the change

Zoë Scorer

Managing Director

I began my career in public relations 10 years ago working on media relations campaigns across a variety of sectors – from food and drink and toys to animal health and financial services. My experience has given me the ability to adapt quickly, be creative and, importantly, to lead by example.

I have been with Conscious Communications since the very beginning and have seen the company grow to what it is today. I oversee the delivery of our high impact public relations and marketing programmes and lead the client servicing team – and what a team we have. We may be small but we certainly punch above our weight and compete on a level playing field with the big agencies. Our clients are delighted by our work and that is down to the creativity, drive and expertise of our team. Each team member has their own strengths and ambitions and I ensure we nurture those ambitions and give everyone the opportunities for their talents to flourish.

My commitment to quality ensures that we use our combined experience to provide clients with highly effective campaigns that achieve their objectives, offer real value and provide sustainable results.

Alison Taylor

CEO

During my career I’ve been very fortunate to work along-side some of the best in the business, supporting major international corporations and blue-chip brands, as well as entrepreneurial SMEs and start-ups, in industries as diverse as education, ecommerce, health and nutrition, construction and sustainability.

I started my career working in front-line media relations for the food industry, which I believe was the best grounding I could have for a career in strategic communications, brand building, reputation and issues management

Conscious Communications was born from a passion for communications and a desire to build an agency that delivers a superior service through transparent, honest and long-lasting working relationships with its clients.

I feel honoured to be working with such an inspirational and loyal team, whose clients love the results they deliver and are their greatest ambassadors.

Sophie Baillie

Associate Director

Head of Client Services

I began my professional life as a journalist and made my way into publishing, which gave me a strong foundation and understanding of how the media industry operates and what makes a good story.

Since joining Conscious Communications many moons ago, I have been fortunate to work across a number of sectors, from education and health to food and drink, technology and construction; achieving results regionally, nationally and internationally for clients to give them the competitive edge – whether that is media coverage in target publications and markets, building communities and engaging with audiences on social media, an increase in website traffic or stand out design work.

I thrive on building client relationships so that I am a trusted advisor for their public relations and marketing strategies. I am proud to have nurtured long-lasting relationships with my clients, some of which I have worked with for over five years, and look forward to forging new ones.

Ali Riddell

Associate Director

Head of Business Development

I started out my career finding my feet in big international agencies before coming home to Conscious Communications. My client portfolios have been consistently varied throughout my career, covering everything from health and beauty to commercial property, as they remain to this day where on any given week you can find me implementing tailored public relations and marketing programme strategies across international education, health, technology and retail sectors.

During my career I have had the opportunity to be seconded as part of my client’s in-house team. In this role I was responsible for managing the external corporate communications strategy and events programme across a multi-channel business and led the delivery of a series of external stakeholder events including; conferences, trade shows, annual reception and press launches. I have taken from this dual experience of in-house and consultancy, the ability to manage my valued client relationships by operating as an indispensable extension of their team.

The team at Conscious Communications is an exciting team to be a part of as we challenge ourselves every day to deliver impact and value for our clients, and it’s one I’m proud to be a part of.
