Introducing the Rabbits!

Dirk Singer - Head Rabbit

With 17 years online and PR experience, Dirk cut his communications teeth on some of the biggest internet brands going – Google, MSN and Yahoo!

After nine years as a co-founder of Cow PR, Dirk hived off the former digital division into a separate agency: Rabbit, which he now heads up.

Dirk loves stats, he loves them so much that he writes a whole blog devoted to them.

When Dirk’s not burrowing about, you can find him on Twitter, Instagram, Foodspotting, LinkedIn, Foursquare, Delicious, and Skype.

Bridey Lipscombe - Head of Social

Before founding Rabbit with Dirk in February 2010, Bridey spent four years in the Cow fields working on Pubic Relations campaigns for Burger King Europe, Cartoon Network, Bandai, Vauxhall Fashion Scout and Golden Wonder. 

In the warren, Bridey heads up our bmibaby, Pernod Ricard, Flowd, Water Aid and Instagramers projects.  

Our resident snow bunny she spent an entire year on top of a mountain in Whistler, BC! When she isn’t bunny hopping about the office or busy making snow angels you can find her on Twitter, Skype, Facebook, Linkedin, Spotify, Gowalla, Slideshare, Soundcloud, Instagram, Tumblr and Flickr.

Cat Turner - Head of Digital

Cat joined Rabbit in early 2011 and focuses on creative digital and communications strategies as well as keeping the Rabbits happy!

Previously Cat headed up digital communications for the Lib Dems where she ran the online comms strategy for the 2010 General Election.

When she’s not cleaning her whiskers or preening her fur, you can find Cat on Tumblr, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, Skype, Gowalla and recently Jux!
 
Zoë Ann Baker - Digital Account Manager

Zoë adopted Rabbit life in June 2010. She graduated from Cardiff in 2009, having studied Journalism, Film and media complete with dissertation focussed on social media (Social networking and music: The impact of MySpace as a digital platform for discovery and distribution) which fuelled a love for the online world!

Special skills: latte art, home cooking and wine drinking. Addicted to: online shopping, vintage shops and Marmite products.  Loves: London, Birmingham, Cardiff, Munich, eating out, fashion, live music, TV and sofas.

Zoe can be found on Facebook, Twitter, Skype, Spotify and over at her blog (food, photos, music and general interest).

Jim Pappa ‘Beats’ Shaughnessy - Creative and Digital Account Manager

Jim became a Rabbit in late 2010. Before that he spent three years working in and around television at ITV, Endemol and others in entertainment development and on various productions. 



He once was part of a film crew that blew a house up. On purpose.

When he’s not banging on about The Smiths, he can be found on Twitter, Skype, and looking after the Rabbit Spotify playlists.


Sophie Rivet - Digital Account Manager

Sophie previously worked at Heaven Agency in Paris for premium and luxury brands including Boucheron and Van Cleef & Arpels. She ventured across the channel a year ago to  join Digital Outlook in London, to work on the social media presence of brands including Lacoste Pink, NBC Universal and Tesco’s Mr. Men Sweets. Sophie also writes short stories (black ink, white paper), does a lot of black & white photography and dresses head to toe in black… with a touch of white. Do you see a pattern emerging?
You can find Sophie on Twitter and Instagram.

Kennerdeigh Scott - Social Media Consultant

Having interned for Rabbit during the summer of 2010, Kennerdeigh returned to the team full-time in June 2011, finishing off (what turned out to be) a First Class degree in Marketing Communications at Middlesex University in the interim. 

Previously Kennerdeigh worked in the completely unrelated fields of Geographical Information Systems (think Google Streetview), and as an Artist Manager (having failed to make it as a rockstar himself.) 

When not thinking of what to put in brackets (he really does like them) Kennerdeigh can be found on Twitter, Facebook, Skype and Tumblr.

Caroline Honour - Social Media Consultant

Caroline hopped into the Rabbit warren in May 2011, having previously been with viral video company, Unruly Media.
 
She was born and brought up in the Isle of Man, and arrived in London via Chester and Leeds, grabbing a Master’s Degree in Advertising and Marketing from the Leeds University on the way.
 
Devoted to tech and social media, Caroline also has a passion for music and enjoys learning new instruments, singing and violin. Hobbies include photography, independent films, and reading; anything, from newspapers to the Classics, to illustrated children’s literature (Moomin is a particular favourite).
 
When she’s not on Twitter, she can be found on Skype, Last.FM and Tumblr, or playing violin in A Fine Day for Sailing.

Alex Heffernan - Design and Social Media Executive

Alex joined Rabbit in February 2010 after a brief stint as a Chris de Burgh impersonator. After Stars in Their Eyes ended in 2006, Alex studied at Bournemouth University where he learned to make his continual stream of questionable ideas into little questionable realities. 

When he’s not making design and web things, he’s daydreaming about playing guitar and laying down tunes. Until the band get back together for the stadium tour, Alex will be using most of his time outside of Rabbit imagining what he would have done with his fire-breathing fists.

You can find Alex on Twitter.

Emily Meacher - Social Media Executive

After leaving University with a degree, Emily embarked on a journey to the Far East! After realising she needed to settle down, she worked for The Extreme Sports Company - sharing her love of extreme sports. Working for them lead to her interest in social media and that’s when she realised she wanted to work with the Rabbits.

She is a bit of a sports nut, having a keen interest in Moto x and she’d easily choose a skiing holiday over a beach holiday anytime.

She loves experimenting with cooking, makes the best banana milkshakes and eats out as much as she can!She’s also a big fan of Dexter and Mad Men.

Emily can be found on Instagram, Twitter, Skype and Facebook.

Sinead McGowan - Rabbity Intern

Currently in her third at the University for the Creative Arts, finishing her degree in Advertising and Brand Communications, Sinead hopped into the warren in the summer of 2011 with a love for design, digital and curious interest in social media.
 
She developed a thirst for travel after spending a semester abroad for five months in Barcelona on an Erasmus exchange, a determined little bunny out to work hard and play hard! But she’s most happy with a good cuppa tea!
 
If she’s not painting zebra prints on her paws she can usually be found on Twitter, Facebook and Skype.

_____________________________

In addition to our team of Rabbits we work closely with our partner ad agency DLKW Lowe. However, we don’t employ a cast of thousands and never intend to.

As we’re not a traditional agency with stock rooms, press cuttings services, admin staff and so on, we can concentrate on giving you a front end account team, and bringing people into our ‘engine room’ as and when we need them.
