Senior Consultant,
Proof Communications

After a long career in customer service management, Glynis altered course to begin work with Proof Communications in 2013.

She is one of those people for whom typos, grammar mistakes and style inconsistencies simply leap off the page. This skill, combined with her meticulous attention to detail, is what makes Glynis an exceptionally thorough copywriter, copy editor and proofreader.

Glynis’ first step in the world of work was selling life insurance by cold calling. From this unlikely beginning, Glynis spent many years working for AMP; her last role as the presenter of Financial Services for Women seminars.

A move to the UK gave Glynis the chance to establish her own training consultancy. After a number of years running her own business, she headed home to Australia. For the next eight years Glynis served as the National Customer Service Manager for a privately owned promotional apparel company in Brisbane. Throughout this time, Glynis applied her eye for detail to her employer’s corporate communications.

With her enthusiasm, care and commitment, Glynis brings our clients her ability to greatly improve the quality and readability of their documents, making them the best they can be.
