Social Media Consultant for hire in London


Ben Matthews, Experienced Social Media Consultant

I’m a social media consultant for hire in London, with 8 years experience in the tech, mobile, government, charity and startup sectors. I started my social career in the financial sector, moving to technology, government and charity social media agencies, before finally working as a freelance social media consultant.

I offer a wide range of social media consultancy services, from social media strategy and community management through to campaign measurement and social media training. Though based in London and often work with client’s in their offices, I run social media campaigns for organisations across the world.

My approach to social media consultancy is to provide an honest, flexible and results-driven service.

How I can help you:

  • Create a comprehensive social media strategy that will get you results that positively affect your bottom line
  • Craft your company’s social media messaging to cut-through the noise and get noticed by influencers
  • Create  lists of which influencers and online media you need to connect with
  • Draft social media that engages key  influencers in your sector
  • Develop content marketing strategies to enhance your earned media activites
  • Train you and your colleagues in how to run your own social media campaigns and activities

How I can work with you:

  • On a project basis (one-off projects lasting from a few weeks to a few months) or on a retained basis (ongoing work with an agreed notice period)
  • Under my own name (Montfort – the boutique social media agency I run) or under your company name (perfect for social media agencies looking for support)
  • In your office (I appreciate that sometimes you want your consultant to be seen and work directly with your team) or remotely (that said, I do sometimes like to work from home)

My experience as a social media consultant includes:

UN Refugee Agency, Microsoft, London 2012, Just Giving, American Express, the Financial Times, World Wildlife Federation, HarperCollins, O2 and many more.

What clients say about my social media consultancy:

“Responded to our initial brief quickly and outlined a targeted approach, with their consultancy helping the campaign achieve over 5 times its target. We’re looking forward to working with them again.”

– Nicola Lapsley, Director, The Good Agency

“A pleasure to work with and have offered honest advice throughout our time working with them. What started as a small client brief eventually turned into a larger partnership, with our consultancy now benefitting from a renewed confidence in social media.”

– Robert Elliott,Director, Breakthrough Media

“Ben is one of the most talented communications professionals I have ever met. He is very smart, insightful and handles stakeholders with great diplomacy.”
