About me
(Revd) Dr Tim Gibson BA (Hons), MA, PhD
In addition to my work at UWE, I have extensive exec- and board-level experience in the commercial sector, including as Communications Director of John Wainwright & Company Ltd since 2016, and as a trustee/governor of a variety of charitable organisations and schools.
I run a copywriting and communications agency, with clients including Sherborne School, Telegraph Media Group, Sherborne Girls, Exmoor National Park Authority, and Bridgwater & Taunton College.
I'm also a Church of England priest, and held senior management positions in a variety of Theological Education Insitutions, validated by UK universities, from 2005 - 2017.
