Nikki Hughes

Senior Global Director Marketing (Creative) at Edelman (Global)
London, United Kingdom

About me

I'm a creative marketeer and Senior Global Director for Edelman, responsible for the creative storytelling of our work, across the global network. I'm here to strategise around the work (case studies, awards and media participation), make kick-ass films, whip our written cases studies in to shape and disseminate those goals and skills across the network.

My background in filmmaking and production, post production and copywriting, plus my years spent working for Cannes Lions where I was exposed to the best work in the industry, come together to inform my creative role and approach.

Outside of the office, I write and produce my own theatre and film projects - mostly comedy - and am currently working on a sitcom.
