Deb, our wonderful Financial Controller, has just embarked on her exciting retirement and emailed us all to say goodbye, reflecting on her working life. With her kind permission, she is happy for us to share her thoughts with all of you in our latest blog.
Dear Colleagues,
Reaching the end of my working career, and looking forward to exciting future adventures, has led me to look back at the various jobs I’ve had and the people I’ve met along the way. From way back before working in finance, my work in the world of music still holds many great memories for me and I’m still in touch with good friends from those years. My career in investment banking in London, though obviously rewarding in many ways, was rather less motivating and inspiring!
As I now reflect on my final role as Finance Manager at kdm communications, I can honestly say I’ve never known an employer more generous, thoughtful, and flexible, and so good at combining high quality professional standards with such a relaxed and supportive ethos. In my experience, few employers take such trouble to look after their staff and to encourage them to feel good about their working day and achieving their goals. Fun training days, summer parties, kind gestures such as birthday and Christmas gifts, and incentive gift vouchers for those who go “Above and Beyond”, are all examples of how fortunate my (soon to be ex-) colleagues are to be working here. Believe me, the world of work doesn’t get much better!
I will miss being here and your company and want to wish you all the very best for the future.

Sales cycles are inherently long in the life sciences and healthcare spaces, with complex products and decision-makers that often demand substantial evidence before committing to a solution. As a result, lead generation isn’t just about getting names on a list – it’s about attracting the right people, at the right time, with messaging that they
There is no doubt that, in an age of information overload, standing out is more challenging than ever, especially in the life sciences and healthcare markets. Video marketing offers a fantastic opportunity for brands trying to communicate complex ideas, products and services. After all, YouTube is the world’s second-largest search engine, with over a billion
What is data-driven marketing? Data-driven marketing is the practice of using measurable insights to inform, execute and refine your campaigns. It’s about continuous improvement and replacing assumptions with evidence. Data-driven marketing uses facts – not gut feelings – to guide everything from content creation to your choice of marketing and outreach channels. It’s marketing that’s
