Nick Sladek
Managing Director
Nick’s our marketing guru – he has well over 30 years’ experience in the business so he’s bound to know a thing or two. So before he tells you ‘its not about you, it’s about the customer’, you might also like to know he’s great at helping you get noticed. Neither a follower nor a yes man, he’ll tell you what you need to do in plain English – and most of the time he’s right!
Julie Kenyon
Commercial Director
Julie’s background is also in marketing, in particular, making words work. She is responsible for overseeing the generation of content for the Essentiamail broadcasts, adding a creative spin to catch the attention of the reader. Her words have evoked responses from the likes of Morrisons, Nokia, Harrods, Balfour Beatty and New Look to name a few. Julie is also head of finance, and keeps an eye on the numbers.
