Glenda Barber - Freelance Marketing Consultant in Bristol

Hello…

I’m Glenda and I live in Bristol with my husband and my son. I love this city, the culture, the vibe and the food.

My career has been varied, starting out in hospitality at Brains Brewery from behind the bar to marketing manager and eventually taking my marketing skills into FMCG, healthcare, legal, education and back to hospitality again in 2016 as head of marketing for The Cosy Club at Loungers.

I love food, I love new places to try and I love to share food with my friends and family. So with Bloom, I wanted to bring my two big passions together and create something exciting for me to do every day.

You can take a look at some of my proudest moments below, but nothing makes me beam more than seeing these testimonials from the clients I have been lucky enough to bag in my self-employment era.

Some of the things I can assure you of when choosing to work with me include; being hugely efficient, able to handle a large volume of work, a self-starter with plenty of initiative and basically great at getting shit done that’s been on your list to tackle for a while.

If that sounds good, I’d love to meet you and hear more about your business and your latest project.
