Joanne Smalley
Status: At Full Capacity
Career
I’m a marketing comms professional, specialising in B2B businesses at the intersection of energy and technology. I’ve spent over 14 years in the energy industry, working for 3 of the big 6, heading up comms for ELEXON and leading a team of 7 at a niche PR agency called Aspectus Group. I am currently running my own comms practice working with companies across Europe.
Why I Became a Mentor
I feel I’ve got a lot of ‘non-technical’ experience that could help women working in the energy sector – there have to be lots of women who are finding it hard to be taken seriously when they aren’t in operational or technical areas (as I experienced) and I think I could help them navigate that path.
