Derek West: Marketing Manager
Derek joined MJMEnergy in 2004 as the Marketing
and Brand Manager. With a background in advertising,
conceptual design, product development and merchandising,
his role is to develop the MJMEnergy brand and communicate
the company ethos to energy players worldwide.
His early career as an illustrator and graphic designer mainly in the production of scientific and technical publications ultimately led to working on the UN publication for the 1992 Earth Summit on Sustainable Development held in Rio de Janeiro.
Other industry involvement was with national press coverage of matters such as the disposal of the Brent Spar oil storage buoy in 1995 when he was commissioned to produce a series of illustrations showing suggested means of its salvage.
Conceptual design has always been high on his agenda and this creative background has led to him being a useful member of the team in the development of MJMEnergy's interactive games and exercises. Working closely with colleagues, associates and clients, Derek helps design practical resources to suit a variety of purposes from communicating company strategy to team-building.
