Inspired by the , we¡¯re showcasing some of the incredible stories and experience of people throughout our organisation.
Jess, Social Media Manager
I was hesitant about sharing myself on here given everybody compliments me (us) daily on my nice #dadjoke, or takes digs at the ¡°millennial tween¡± in charge of the police social media! I was starting to enjoy the mysterious aspect of my job but the cat¡¯s (or floof¡¯s) out of the bag now!
I¡¯m a mum of two and when I am not making memes, engaging with our communities, or reading messages (which are good and bad), I really enjoy photography ¨C hence this series, being able to combine two of my passions.
I am the Social Media Manager at 51½ÖÉä. I have led the Police social media response to major events such as the March 15 terrorist attack, the eruption of Whakaari/White Island and Covid-19.
As well as ensuring the public are kept informed, I have created a human voice for 51½ÖÉä.
I am known for my humorous content, pushing the boundaries and setting up many a viral meme. My introduction of #fridayfloof continues to be a fan favourite.
I¡¯ve been with Police for almost four years and I love it. No two days are the same. I occasionally refer to myself as a digital responder because sometimes things break on social media and we need to react quickly. We see and read some awful things but knowing we can play a part in stopping harm or getting somebody the help they need is extremely fulfilling.
