Steven Robson
Steven Robson is the Marketing Specialist Business Advisor for the Working Neighbourhood Fund project after joining the organisation from The Energy Saving Trust.
Steven’s background covers numerous different industries including public sector education and training, after working with a large regional college and the University of Sunderland. Having also marketed small commercial training providers covering the health & safety and electrical industries, the consumer health & beauty market, and the commercial and leisure vehicle market he wanted to use the knowledge of these industries to help businesses with their marketing.
Dealing with projects across the marketing mix has provided a wide range of marketing skills and experiences including design, large run print work, advertising and digital or website campaign management. Providing these services to small to medium businesses can help break down some the myths and barriers that often surround marketing. Speaking in plain English and making marketing a measurable business activity is a particular passion within the field and Steven’s approach to all marketing projects is to be able to monitor their success through clear returns on investments.
Providing businesses with a down to earth ethos on marketing is pivotal to Steven’s advice approach and the Working Neighbourhood Fund is fantastic opportunities to help businesses in the local area really take a grasp of their marketing functions.
Steven is from the local area and is proud to be a North Easterner! This passion translates to a desire to see the future development of the area at the forefront of national and regional policy. By providing the local business community with the help needed to market themselves effectively, the Working Neighbourhood Fund is the perfect opportunity to contribute to the future of the area.
Hobbies and Interests
A lot of Steven’s time is spent out of doors, walking the ‘troop’ of four Robson family dogs. Visits to the region’s beauty spots are a regular weekend pastime to enjoy the scenery and get some exercise. When not being dragged about the countryside by the hounds, Steven enjoys going to the local gym and exercising. Other evening and weekend entertainment events consist of comedy nights and football, two hobbies which are conveniently combined through Steven’s Middlesbrough Football Club season ticket.
If there is any time left he enjoys reading a good book and settling down to a interesting film, with particular interests of political commentary and marketing for reading time, and classic war or crime films for the silver screen.
