Rachel Hicks

Consultant

I began my marketing career in education and publishing, and spent a number of years leading on pupil recruitment and stakeholder communications in schools before working as a consultant supporting senior leaders and governors with strategy, engagement and recruitment projects. In 2020 I completed an MSc in Charity Marketing and took up the role of Head of Marketing and Communications for UK Community Foundations. I’m now building on my earlier consultancy experience, working with charities on strategy development, stakeholder engagement and compelling communications. I live and work in the beautiful city of York where I’m a trustee of two local charities and a school governor.
