Senior Policy Communications Officer
As a senior policy communications officer in Nesta's healthy life mission, Naomi connects the mission with policy audiences by managing a high-impact editorial pipeline.
She drives policy engagement through integrated communications - from digital storytelling and thought leadership, to legacy and non-traditional media - to build the mission’s profile and influence.
Prior to Nesta, Naomi spent over three years at the communications agency Edelman. Beginning as a marketing and communications manager leading multichannel digital campaigns, she specialised as a senior writer in the healthcare communications team. There, she translated complex policy narratives for technical and public audiences, and drove executive positioning and disease awareness campaigns for global pharmaceutical clients. Alongside this role, she completed a MA in Philosophy, Politics and Economics from UCL.
Outside of work, Naomi enjoys cycling, cooking for friends and family and watching hours of interior design videos on YouTube.
