Kerry Thorpe is Head of Communications for Ben & Jerry’s Europe. Kerry joined the tasty world of Ben & Jerry’s five years ago and is responsible for the development of the company’s communication strategies, goals and procedures in five key markets in Europe: Germany, France, the Nordics, Benelux and the UK. Kerry’s role requires more than tickling taste-buds with flavour news. She also works hand in hand with Ben & Jerry’s Social Mission Managers and NGO partners across Europe to use the ice cream business as a force for good. Kerry is responsible for co-creating social justice campaigns that drive systemic change; most recently on the topics of climate justice, refugee rights and marriage equality. Kerry also builds capacity and confidence values-led story-telling in local teams, and provides leadership on external relations and community management. Kerry started her career at MTV, and was previously Head of PR at communications charity Media Trust.
