Colin Lievens: Social media and comms portfolio

Who Am I?

Hi, I’m Colin (they/them) and I’d like to help improve your organisation’s social media!

I’ve been involved in the charity sector for more than a decade, with nearly half that time specialising in social media and marketing for various charities (and some small businesses).

I recently left my role as Comms Worker at Allsorts Youth Project, where I increased Instagram engagement by 171%, accumulated 3,657 connections across three different LinkedIn accounts, and even had a TikTok video reach 32.7K views!

I also currently run the social media for my own small business, Keyring Records, and for Brighton & Hove’s baby bank, Pelican Parcels. Plus, I support with editing and strategy for musician and micro-influencer Thom Isaacs.

The following page will show some of my previous social media and comms work, followed by some ideas about what I could do for you. Click here for my full CV.
