About
I’m Robert Simpson, a multi-disciplinary content creator and social media specialist with 10+ years of experience producing and scaling editorial, video, audio, and social content that grows audiences and strengthens brand presence. I turn complex topics into platform-native storytelling across LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, and X—combining strong editorial judgement with hands-on production so the content looks great and performs.
I’ve built and managed high-volume publishing pipelines, created 500+ videos, and helped grow a YouTube channel organically through SEO-informed, narrative-driven output. Alongside video, I’ve owned podcast development and rollout end-to-end—doubling listenership through story structure, community-focused promotion, and data-informed planning—while using AI-assisted workflows to speed up ideation and editing. I’m relocating to Newcastle upon Tyne and committed to being in place ahead of any start date.
