@crystalcheche
I lead integrated communications, PR, and digital campaigns that strengthen visibility and audience growth.
What I'm looking for
At Greydale Africa, I lead communications, PR, and marketing for a portfolio of seven client accounts, including the Mastercard Foundation, AWS, and Safaricom. I translate business goals into integrated media, digital, stakeholder, and reputation plans.
I oversee budgets ranging from $5,000 to $75,000 and support a multidisciplinary team of nine across client programs. I also guide leadership teams on messaging, media engagement, thought leadership, and crisis communications.
Previously at Africa New Media Group, I developed SEO and content strategies across seven African markets, improving high-competition keyword rankings into Google’s top five. My SEO content helped increase organic traffic by 100% to 1 million.
I’ve also built social engagement, client communications, media relationships, events, and digital campaigns at Workstyle Africa and Apex Porter Novelli. I bring a practical, data-informed approach to creating communications that deliver measurable business outcomes.
