Kirsten Ross

I’m Kirsten

I’m an experienced comms professional who loves to bring ideas to life. Over the years I’ve helped organisations shape corporate cultures, improve employee engagement, enter new markets and drive productivity, profitability and performance from within.

I’ve worked in-house, in agencies, on my own and as part of a team. I’ve worked on big brands and small brands across a variety of different industries.

From Internal Communications to traditional marketing and advertising, I’ve seen the power of print, mastered the meta description and driven meaningful change within organisations.

What my colleagues say

“Kirsten has the remarkable ability to distill massive amounts of information into sensible and coherent elements and to create order from chaos.

Clients really appreciated her incisive wit and good humour, as well as her written and conceptual outputs.”

CEO

ACTUATE

“Kirsten is a highly-intelligent, approachable person, whose friendly nature encourages colleagues to ask for help. She works well with others and has excellent conflict resolution skills, which in the volatile world of advertising, is not something often found.

She is professional and her work ethic cannot be faulted.”
