French and after she went to university to study languages. In 2018, she moved from the UK
to Barcelona (in Spain not the football club). She works in media relations and short-term

Harry Robinson

Employed

Employer

BBC

Job Title

Social Media Executive

Harry Robinson used to go to Arden and now he works for the BBC and is a Social
Media Executive for BBC Sounds. He works within a small team. He states that he
works on creating and writing captions and tweets as well as, occasionally, having
to write policy documents about the use of emojis! He talked to us about the fact
that sometimes he has to write within a small amount of words so as not to drag
out a sentence and keep peoples’ attention. Part of his job is that he can meet with
a lot of famous people including James Acaster and many others. He mentioned
that the only way he would have been given the opportunity to meet these people
is because he follows the mantra ‘If you don’t ask, you don’t get.’
