Sam Scott Wood
Strategy • brand • digital transformation
A highly experienced digital transformation consultant, I work with organisations to make meaningful digital change that reaches and connects with audiences, whether helping to develop and implement new technology, making practical improvements to existing systems or providing strategic advice and support.
I have over 20 years experience in the cultural and non-profit sectors, with a career that includes in-house marketing and digital roles, as well as heading up the digital team at a leading design and digital agency. I work with organisations including Camden Art Centre, English National Ballet, Serpentine, Unlimited, Southbank Centre and Wellcome Collection, and as a digital advisor for Arts Council England on the Bloomberg Digital Accelerator Programme.
I can help with digital strategy and planning, systems and platform development (website development, CRM and ticketing, and email) and project management and support for major digital projects. I also work with organisations to provide support for team management, development and recruitment for marketing and digital roles.
