Amy-Jane Cahalane Joins eSocialMedia!

Amy-Jane joins eSocialMedia after 6 years of working in Local Government. Her most recent role was Economic Development Officer at Bedford Borough Council, where she led several large scale projects and ran events across Bedfordshire.

Amy-Jane is a self-confessed ‘Social Media Junkie’ (with no future plans to visit rehab!). She has developed and advanced her online communication skills for business use and, whilst working at Bedford Borough Council, has successfully utilised both her project management and digital skills to organise a number of successful and well attended offline events.

 

Amy developed a particularly effective online community called 'Creative Bedfordshire', a hub of creative professionals and graduates based in Bedfordshire. Amy-Jane sourced and engaged the members online through Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn and built the network up to over 400 members. Monthly networking meetings take place for the members and some great partnerships, groups, initiatives and events have stemmed from this network.

 

Amy-Jane says: “Creative Bedfordshire is an excellent example of how a combination of formal and informal interaction via social media can create strong and meaningful business relationships”. 

 

Amy-Jane is now further developing her digital marketing and technology skills within eSocialMedia. She is currently being trained and receiving work experience on social media consulting projects with some of eSocialMedia’s enterprise (multi-national) clients.

 

As a qualified Prince2 practitioner and former PA, Amy-Jane is a very organised and methodical member of the eSocialMedia team. Amy-Jane is looking forward to the new challenges ahead and to working on some of eSocialMedia’s new and exciting enterprise consulting projects.
