Melissa Dixon

I have worked in marketing and copywriting since 2012. My initial focus was on copy and content, but since moving to the UK in 2018, I have established a career in FMCG marketing.

I have experience across the field, from trade marketing to digital, content creation to PR work. There is no greater feeling than seeing a product you’ve been championing since day one get launched or receive the recognition you believe it deserves. 

I am trilingual (English, Afrikaans, Dutch) and have also freelanced as a translator.

My true passion are word, but I have dabbled and feel capable of delivering in all areas of the marketing mix.
