Ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes at SeaGrown? Today, we're shadowing Erik, our Communications Officer, to give you a glimpse into his day!
The morning might start with a sunrise shoot out at sea, capturing the beauty of the Yorkshire coastline and our crew working our innovative seaweed cultivation systems. Back in the office, it's time to review the latest designs for our upcoming campaign, ensuring our message of ocean restoration resonates with our audience.
"I love the variety and creativity in my job," says Erik. "Every day is different, and it's incredibly rewarding to use my skills and passions to help SeaGrown make a real difference for our oceans."
Erik's day is a dynamic blend of creativity and strategy. From crafting compelling social media posts to brainstorming new video concepts, he's always finding new ways to tell SeaGrown's story. He might be collaborating with our science team on an infographic explaining the benefits of seaweed cultivation or diving deep into data to create engaging visual reports that showcase our impact to stakeholders.
But it's not all about pixels and visuals! Just like our scientists exploring the ways seaweed cultivation can benefit the planet, Erik is always seeking new ways to connect people with the wonders of the marine world. Whether he's drafting a press release or coordinating a site visit for a film crew, Erik ensures our message is clear, engaging, and inspiring. Every day brings new discoveries for Erik, whether he's uncovering fascinating facts about seaweed or finding innovative ways to engage our audience.
As the day winds down, Erik might be found sketching out ideas for a new webpage or reviewing analytics to see which content is making the biggest waves. His passion for communication and dedication to SeaGrown's mission shines through in everything he does.
