I'm James McCann-Ellerington. Based in London, I specialise in delivering B2B copy for businesses. ​​Away from the day job, I spend my time on the golf course or at a piano - both require much improvement.

Why me?

With over 17 years of experience, I have a track record for delivering outstanding copy for a wide range of clients. Over the years, I’ve worked with a wide range of B2B and B2C businesses, agencies and individuals across a variety of sectors to help generate widespread awareness and effectively communicate their messages to their target audiences.

I have won multiple awards for my work and have been recognised by my peers as being one of the best independent communications consultants for the last five years. You can see examples of my work in my portfolio and I am more than happy to provide additional references, testimonials, or other examples on request.

What my clients say

"I have worked with James for a number of years, within different organisations. James is wonderful to work with. Not only is he highly skilled, but very agile, and able to work with numerous internal stakeholders across the business and regions, as well as working directly with our customers to create collateral. James is able to seamlessly adapt his writing to the audience and asset type."
Jo Rodgers, Director of International Marketing, Accruent

“I worked with James between 2019-2022 at my previous agency; he was a comms consultant working across a range of technology clients. He's great. Firstly, he has the knowledge, creativity and attitude to graft results. He's got broad experience across a range of sectors so can turn his hand to new things, and is great to work with too - he gives diplomatic but honest counsel to clients and is reliable and communicative. Highly recommended.”
Matt Phillips, CEO, MPPR

“James is just plain great at what he does and continues to be an invaluable member of our extended team. Super reliable, professional, knowledgeable, and just gets on with the task at hand. It’s a joy to be able to hand a brief to someone who you know will execute it perfectly and actually get the results you need, without any hand holding. I would recommend James to anyone without hesitation.”
Dave Bertling, President & Founder, LIVE24 Communications

“James has been working for us for a year now. Working with him has been a success and pleasantly pain free. We told him what we needed, he told us what he could deliver, he delivered it and then reported on what he delivered. He has fitted in really well with other members of our team and our way of working. We are looking forward to working with him further and implementing some of the ideas he's come up with.”
Nigel Jones, co-founder, Privacy Compliance Hub
