I began my journalism career writing technology columns for The Independent and Time Out. Since then, I’ve expanded into multiple industries and topics—from global finance and business to interviews and travel stories—developing a talent for deep research and adaptable writing.

My work has appeared in prestigious national and regional outlets, including The Guardian, The Independent, Reuters, FT Magazine, Wallpaper, CNBC European Business, United Rhapsody, Delta Sky, Virgin Australia, Virgin Atlantic, Time Out, Tatler, Portland Mercury and Portland Monthly.

I’m also a copywriter and storyteller for eminent brands, including Unilever, NatWest/RBS bank, Airbus, Visit London, Visit Las Vegas, Sappi, Bose and the Department of Health. I craft clear, purposeful narratives that capture each brand's distinct voice while building connections with their audience and delivering on their key objectives.

As well as long-form writing, I’ve been in the deep end with SEO-driven blogs, case studies, guides, books, newsletters, brochures, interviews, ghost-written articles, LinkedIn and Instagram videos and documentary scripts.

Martin is a fluid writer with a genuine feel for his specialist areas and a professional respect for turning around crisp copy on deadline.
