Background

About George Holland

For the past 5 years, I’ve honed my skills in marketing, breathing life into products and brands from inception to market success. As a Product and Social Media Manager at Ripstone, a dynamic video game publisher headquartered in Liverpool, I thrived on crafting immersive narratives and captivating content across various platforms, including Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. With over five years of experience in the marketing arena, I bring a unique blend of creativity, strategic thinking, and a passion for gaming to every project. At Ripstone, I played a pivotal role in driving engagement and brand awareness by creating compelling content and helping manage the studio's titles. I contributed to the success of the studio's 2023 title, The Queen's Gambit Chess, by lending my expertise to scriptwriting and community management initiatives. Collaborating closely with marketing and development teams, I ensured a cohesive approach to promoting our games and amplifying the Ripstone brand. Before joining the games industry, I honed my marketing skills as a Marketing Executive and Copywriter at Victorian Plumbing, a leading national eCommerce business. This experience allowed me to work and gain a holistic marketing experience alongside exceptional professionals. Armed with a BA in Creative Writing and Film from Liverpool John Moores University, I also possess a keen eye for storytelling and a knack for crafting engaging narratives that resonate with audiences. With a diverse skill set encompassing social media marketing, product management, blogging, web content writing, SEO, and narrative design, I am well-equipped to spearhead comprehensive marketing campaigns and elevate brands to new heights. Outside of games. I'm an avid fan of film and TV, always immersing myself in all aspects of popular culture. I'm also a huge Evertonian. I'm excited about the opportunity to continue making a meaningful impact in the fields of Product Marketing Management, Content Marketing Management, Brand Management, and/or Social Media Management.
