Ellie Shell

Ellie is one of our more junior team members, having only joined the PR team relatively recently. Full of vim and vigour though, she’s very much on an upward trajectory in her career path!

Initially, Ellie left college keen on having a gap year, but having undertaken a spot of work experience here at Pic, she was smitten by the idea of a career in PR. And with us suitably wowed by a combination of her enthusiasm, excellent written ability, and natural affinity with the team – here she is, as a very capable PR Assistant.

Ellie’s love for the media world began at a young age (long before her first encounter with Pic), where she would make vlogs of her day and pretend she was an influencer (Ellie blushed when she told us this, but fair play for having a crack, we say!). She’s still keen to explore that route in her spare time though, so, if you’re a brand reading this, do feel free to hit her up for any influencer chat *insert winky face emoji*. With modern PR having a big influencer element to it, Ellie’s excited to work with *real* influencers to get a taste of what that and the wider PR world is all about.

In her spare time, Ellie is a big enthusiast of social media, being very savvy in that respect (as you’d imagine from her vlogging exploits), while she also loves dogs and seeing the world. We can only imagine that her perfect scenario would see her going on a worldwide jaunt with a canine companion, whilst vlogging the whole thing. But maybe that’s a sabbatical chat some way down the line! Her interests do come in handy though, when needing to know what’s trending, and for when colleagues’ (many) dogs come into the office.

Ellie’s downtime consists of watching Friends (literally on repeat), walking her dog or listening to music. 

Favourite Pic Up Line (heard, but hopefully not used):
