Rebecca spends her time helping international organisations to find the right words, by organising the supply of quality editing, writing and translating services. Her job involves talking to comms professionals to understand what their organisations need, building teams of top people, managing projects big and small and doing all it takes to run a small, successful business with strong ethical values.

She is also a working journalist. Having spent over 25 years writing about education, employment, public policy, governance, anti-corruption, more recently she has been focusing on science and the environment. Rebecca started out writing on Spanish universities for Times Higher and went on to be one of the founders of University World News. She now writes about the results of EU science for Cordis.

Rebecca speaks French, Spanish, Portuguese and Catalan and has so far failed at learning Arabic. When not working, Rebecca spends her time running, pottering in the back garden, learning to dance Lindy Hop and thinking about getting a Spanish Water Dog.

At the heart of Lucy’s role is working with clients to understand their needs and tailor services to meet their requirements, whether this is for a framework contract or for a single job. This might mean putting together a team to work on a flagship project involving a combination of editing, translating and proofreading. Or it could involve guiding a client through a brief and timeframes so that a series of reports are ready for publication.

With a background in managing projects on innovation, Lucy has worked with cities and local authorities to help them tackle their social and urban challenges. She brings this drive and enthusiasm to ICE, to help our clients to deliver on their missions.

A former travel writer, Lucy is always on the look-out for special places and hidden gems. When she takes her PM hat off, she is often to be found walking the Catalan coast path or indulging in her post-lockdown habit of paddle surfing.
