ABOUT ME
I'm Ellie Weehuizen, owner of Ellie Jane Comms. (Lessons on how to pronounce my surname are available on request!)
With an impressive track record spanning over eighteen years, I've honed my expertise by constructing creative communications campaigns for both private and public sector organisations. My secret? I combine a powerful set of strategic skills with imaginative and innovative thinking.
My journey began in the fast-paced world of a corporate PR agency, and I swiftly transitioned to in-house communication roles for SME businesses. From promoting ethical travel to collaborating with renowned cultural institutions and curating experiences in the realm of food and drink, my professional career has been diverse. What unites my experiences is my unwavering pursuit of clients and organisations with a beating heart, a strong purpose, and a genuine desire to engage in meaningful business. Want to know more?

Tourism Declares said:
"Ellie has been a total star building and co-leading our outreach team at Tourism Declares. She's been instrumental to us developing a content strategy, has done remarkable work on delivering our outreach for new members, and has been a pleasure to work with throughout, giving freely of enormous amounts of energy and insight to help us develop our growing initiative in this most challenging time.
As a result, we have had an amazing year, and it wouldn't have been possible without her."
SKILLS
Clear messaging is the foundation of effective communications. I work with founders and purpose-led organisations to define what they stand for, sharpen their positioning and develop strategic messaging that builds trust, differentiation and long-term reputation. From audience insight and key messaging to narrative development and communications planning, I help create clarity that drives every aspect of your communications.
Strong brands are built through strong relationships. I help organisations communicate effectively with stakeholders, partners, employees and audiences through thoughtful engagement strategies and clear, authentic communications. Whether building partnerships, managing internal communications or strengthening external reputation, I focus on creating meaningful and lasting connections.
Communications should support business goals, not just fill channels. I develop strategic communications approaches that align brand, reputation and audience engagement, helping organisations communicate with greater consistency, confidence and impact. This includes communications planning, stakeholder messaging, thought leadership and reputation-focused strategy.
I help organisations translate complex ideas into compelling stories that connect with the right audiences. From thought leadership and campaign narratives to website copy, reports and editorial content, I create strategic content designed to strengthen positioning, communicate value and build credibility.

COMMUNICATIONS CONSULTATION
Let me take away the hassle of creating a communications strategy.

Contact me today and let's get planning!
MARKETING AND COMMUNICATIONS SUPPORT
I provide tactical marketing advice and support on a project or ongoing basis, tailored to suit your business needs. Need help with your email marketing? Looking for creative content ideas for your blog, website or social media? Launching a fantastic product but don't have the time or know-how to promote it to the wider world? Get in touch today and let me help amplify your message.
COPYWRITING
Your product or service needs great copy. And whilst AI may be able to get you so far, do you really trust it to be accurate? Copywriting is a science and an art. Copy editing even more so. Effective copy can be the difference between a customer taking action or simply drifting on by. From emails and newsletters to video scripts or website landing pages, let me at 'em! Examples of my work are here.
COPYEDITING & PROOFREADING
The need for editing, fact-checking and proofing is now more necessary due to the invention of AI. Yes, AI can learn, but can it truly create nuanced and refined text? Communication is best when done human-to-human, after all! Hire me to copyedit or proof your next book manuscript, research article, or impact report, rather than relying on the robots.
