Background

About Katie Bruce

Proactive and strategic marketing professional with a First-Class Honours degree in Sociology and completing an MSc in Marketing Communications at the University of Westminster. I bring a unique mix of entrepreneurial experience and academic insight. I co-founded a spirit-based startup, Journee Juice, where I led brand development, product design, and investor pitches, gaining valuable experience in strategic planning, supplier relations, and campaign execution. I also helped grow a veterinary physio business from 0 to 30+ clients, using digital marketing, web design, and tailored social content. My MSc has included hands-on projects for FMCG brands like Nespresso, Unilever, and MOTH Drinks, where I developed skills in consumer insight, CRM planning, and integrated marketing communication campaigns. I won a creative influencer pitch judged by agency professionals and completed a Lululemon virtual internship simulation, where I led an AR-based marketing concept. Fluent in English and French, and having lived in France for eight years, I’ve developed cultural sensitivity, adaptability, and a global mindset. My creative journey began with stop-motion animation and has evolved into a passion for storytelling, video editing, and brand communication. Above all, I’m driven by a curiosity about what motivates people and a desire to build campaigns that resonate with consumer emotions and values.
