Taylor's CV
Career
Taylor works in Internal Communications and has several years of communications experience. He has a track record of creating engaging content for SharePoint sites, email marketing and social media.
2025-present: Internal Communications Associate for a challenger bank
In this role, I create content for the corporate intranet on a variety of topics, including the organisation's work to support vulnerable customers, colleague wellbeing, new product launches and whatever else needs to be shared.
I also look after the bi-weekly operational newsletter to stores, the call centre and head office colleagues about changes to processes that they should be aware of.
Working with my colleagues in the team, I also help deliver a series of Teams meetings with senior executives including the CEO where colleagues can ask about anything they want, from what's going on in the organisation to the CEO's taste in football teams, for an hour and a half.
2022-2025: Communications Assistant, Pension Protection Fund
The Pension Protection Fund provides compensation to members of defined benefit pension schemes when their sponsoring employer becomes insolvent and cannot meet its promised benefits. It was established by the Pensions Act 2004.
In this role, I helped deliver a variety of organisational change projects and helped deliver successful events including a parliamentary reception and an in-person Town Hall in April 2025. I also introduced a popular weekly Friday quiz which increased engagement with the intranet and all-staff email.
2020-2022: Communications Team Administrator, Pension Protection Fund
2021-2024: Tandridge District Councillor for Westway
I was elected to serve the wonderful community of Westway in Caterham-on-the-Hill in the 2021 Local Elections.
I delivered a number of positive changes for the community, including restoring the roundabout in Yorke Gate and the historic railings outside Hambledon Park to their former glory, working alongside other councillors of all parties to get a more reliable bus service between Caterham Valley and Caterham-on-the-Hill and working with local police to stop anti-social behaviour in The Barracks.
I'm very proud of my work for the community and it helped shape a lot of my thinking around how I help the community in Horley today.
Volunteering
2025-2026: Volunteer, Greyhound Trust
The Greyhound Trust helps home retired racing greyhounds. They've found over 100,000 homes for greyhounds in their 50 year history and their National Greyhound Centre is based locally in Horley.
2022-2023: Council Representative, Caterham Community Association
Caterham Community Association manages a community centre in Caterham on the Hill for residents in the area to attend local clubs with members of all ages. It's also used by a local school for educational purposes.
2020: Volunteer, Four Parish Response Team
During the pandemic, the Four Parish Response team was set up by the Westway Centre in Caterham and aimed to support vulnerable residents living in Caterham, Westway, Whyteleafe and Chaldon. This could be through collecting and delivering shopping, checking in on residents and reducing social isolation.
2019: Fundraiser, National Autistic Society
The National Autistic Society aim to help all of the 700,000 autistic people in the UK and their families. They run specialist schools across the country, help companies to be more autism friendly and aspire to empower autistic people to have a good quality of life and to change attitudes about autism in society. In 2019, I attempted the Tube Challenge in aid of the National Autistic Society and raised £250.
