I oversee publications at Development Initiatives (DI). This involves advising colleagues on how to create compelling content – helping to pick the right format; making text engaging through editing and recommendations on structure and tone; working with analysts to produce accurate and enlightening charts, infographics and interactive content; and making the most of HTML publication.
Beyond that, I also help manage DI’s website content, ensuring it is up to date, and that it provides the best user experience possible. I support the production of DI’s corporate content such as annual reports and strategies, and as part of our wider offer, I work with partners and clients on outputs to help them achieve organisational goals that overlap with DI’s.
I am lucky to manage the publications staff here at DI, and we take a lead in maintaining DI’s ethical content policy, house style, organisational tone, a consistent brand and visual identity across the graphics we produce.
If you have feedback on the website – either the content or the accessibility of it – please feel free to get in touch at [email protected] (marked for the publications team’s attention). You can also use that address to reach out if you’re a freelance editor or designer and wish to be considered for work in the future.
Previous experience: I have previously worked in publishing, helping create illustrated books about travel, history and art.
