Eleanor Besley
Job title
Project manager
Actual job
Spreadsheets and budgets, and just a little bit of wonkiness.
Bio
Having battled across the policy world of the transport sector, Eleanor is now able to help tackle climate change one gantt chart at a time. A long-time fan of 10:10, Eleanor is thrilled to be working on the extremely exciting Powered by 10:10 campaigns.
Maddy Carroll
Job title
Campaigns and PR manager
Actual job
Mucking in on some of 10:10's campaigns. After a stint running Lighter Later Maddy now manages the Solar Schools project as well as inputting in to future campaigns strategy.
Bio
Giving up any hope of morphing into Lara Croft after studying archaeology, Maddy made the unusual move from ancient history to sales to restaurant management to public relations. She went on to forge a career in environmental PR. After three years heading up the PR for green energy company Ecotricity she decided it was time for a new challenge and made the move to 10:10.
Amy Cameron
Job title
Solar Schools coordinator
Actual job
Helping put other people's fabulous ideas into action by liaising with the Solar Schools, our partners, using my phone voice a lot.
Bio
Having undergone a premature mid-life crisis, Amy veered wildly away from veterinary medicine straight into the welcoming arms of a Lighter Later internship. A big fan of 10:10 since its launch, she managed to forge a CV of call centres, waitressing and a short stint at Chester zoo into exactly what you need for a career in campaigning.
Malachi Chadwick
Job title
Content and community manager
Actual job
Words and pictures
Bio
Malachi joined 10:10 in July 2009, halfway through an masters degree in PPE. A former newspaper photographer, designer, and driver of bin lorries, his climate campaigning escapades have taken him to the UN climate talks as part of the UK Youth Delegation media team.
He recently co-authored the Rough Guide to Community Energy with Duncan Clark.
Imogen Lloyd-Thomas
Job title
Solar Schools coordinator
Actual job
Chatting to the Solar Schools and drawing on chalkboards mainly.
Bio
Imogen's journey to save the world started, perhaps unusually, at Cambridge University, whilst studying Social Anthropology. Learning about destructive relationships between people and planet had her worried, so she decided to increase her knowledge (and fear) through an MSc in Environmental Technology at Imperial College, London.
Armed with great ideas Imogen joined the wonderful world of campaigning initially at Climate Week, and then 38 Degrees. Now she is thrilled to be spending her time talking Solar Schools at 10:10.
Erika Helms
Job title
Global campaign manager
Actual job
In addition to working with directors on international strategy, I get to be in touch with all of the fabulous groups and volunteers around the world partnering with 10:10!
Bio
Erika has experience leading and managing non-profit programmes in an international setting. While working and living in China for 15 years, she helped to launch the Jane Goodall Institute's Roots & Shoots programme for youth activism in China, and still serves on their Board of Directors. She also helped to set-up 10:10 China.
Daniel Vockins
Job title
Campaign strategist
Actual job
Helping Heidi and the team devise new campaigns and get the very best out of the current ones. I have a very good job.
Bio
Daniel has been involved since the inception of 10:10 way back in 2009; leading on the initial 10% campaign development, the Lighter Later campaign and latterly the pilot of the Solar Schools campaign. He now holds a part time role at the organisation, advising on the development and roll-out of the most exciting stuff yet – our new campaigns.
With the rest of his time, Daniel heads up the campaigns work of the New Economics Foundation and is a Trustee of the youth empowerment charity Envision.
