ABOUT ALEX HOJBJERG
I’m a people-first, commercially driven Partnerships Director with over 15 years of client-facing sales experience across media, marketing solutions, events, and B2B environments. Currently leading partnerships at Retail Gazette, I connect transformative suppliers with senior retail leaders through high-impact industry events and digital campaigns delivered via tailored marketing solutions.My career spans dynamic roles at industry leaders including Cannes Lions (Ascential), Bauer Media, and William Reed (Retail Week), where I’ve built a reputation for being tenacious, honest, and genuinely invested in long-term client relationships. I thrive on connecting brands to their ideal audiences through creative, consultative solutions - delivering six-figure campaigns across retail, FMCG, finance, tech, EV, beauty, parenting, and health sectors.From winning multiple sales awards and earning three promotions at Bauer, to managing global e-learning portfolios and bespoke B2B2C campaigns, my experience is broad and results-focused. I bring energy, humour, and strategic thinking to every conversation - whether pitching ideas, analysing campaign performance, or solving client challenges.With a BA in English and Media from Nottingham Trent University and a foundation degree in selling skills from Bauer Academy, I’m always looking to grow, innovate, and drive impact. I\'m especially excited by future-facing businesses where I can continue to stretch my skill set, deliver measurable outcomes, and help brands navigate change with confidence and creativity.
