Brent Ellis
PR & Communications in Gothenburg, Sweden
In no specific order, I love cars, food, red wine, Samsung devices, ice cream, expletives, glossy magazines, my close friends and loud music.
My years in the motoring media industry started with Subaru in 2005 while I was still in school. Various freelance gigs took me to 2011 when, after also selling cars for Honda and Mercedes-Benz for just over a year (2009/10), I went into full-time freelance motoring journalism. I served on the 2012 WesBank/SAGMJ Car of the Year Jury, and in 2012/13 won several SAGMJ Motoring Journalist of the Year awards, including the Steve Dlamini Award for Excellence in Motoring Journalism.
In 2013 I took the industry on from the PR side of the fence as Communications Specialist at QuickPic, returning to motoring journalism in 2015.
In 2016 I embarked on a new chapter as the Media Relations Manager for Volvo Car South Africa.
In 2018 I relocated to Sweden and joined Polestar as the PR Manager for Europe.
