Paul Burge
UK
I am a versatile editorial professional with nearly a decade of experience working as a journalist for some of the world's leading news organisations including, BBC, CNN, PBS, The Telegraph and ITV among others.
The bedrock of my experience has been broadcast journalism, after starting out in radio I quickly progressed into TV news working as a correspondent, reporter, producer and editor. With a view to developing my online editorial and multimedia skills, I moved into web content writing, multimedia production and online content management for the UK's Daily Telegraph newspaper.
Having established myself as a well-rounded journalist I was keen to see what life was life on the other side of the communications fence and establish myself in PR. Initially, I made this transition by producing corporate videos and communication channels for pharmaceutical clients. I currently work as a managing editor and analyst for a global research-based corporate PR consultancy where I write and oversee editorial briefings for blue chip brands including, MasterCard, General Motors and Michelin among others.
