About
Hello, I'm Shayne House.
My work moves between freelance consulting, content creation, commercial projects, and my studio practice, but the thread running through it all is purpose. I help charities and values-led brands grow through strategic, innovative marketing and communications.
With extensive experience in brand building and campaign strategy across local, regional and global markets, I bring leadership, operational expertise, and a strategic approach to every project. I've collaborated with agencies, start-ups, nonprofits and corporations across Finance, Education, FMCG and Life Sciences: human and animal health, delivering impactful campaigns in the UK, EMEA, and APAC regions.
Thriving in purpose-led environments, I prioritise positive impact and sustainable practice. I understand the challenges faced by large, complex organisations as well as the priorities and pressures of smaller charities and companies with limited resources, where every campaign has to earn its place.
I've had the privilege of working with a range of purpose-driven organisations, including The Eden Project, Synexus Clinical Research, Unilever's Dove Self-Esteem Project, and RefuAid. Locally, my work with Jamie Oliver's Fifteen Cornwall, StreetVet (Newquay outreach), Wadebridge Renewable Energy Network and Transformation, a charity addressing food insecurity, has further deepened my commitment to community-led change here in Cornwall.
Whether working remotely or on location, I focus on enhancing supporter and client experience, driving operational efficiency, and delivering strategic value, from campaign concept through to the content and channels that bring it to life.

I balance my time between commercial work and my studio practice, bringing an imaginative perspective to strategic challenges. This dual approach brings a more colourful, less ordinary quality to my work, often leading to fresh, novel solutions.
I foster a multidisciplinary approach to my studio practice, working freely across photography, film, printmaking, music and more. My independent surf film, "Handplane to Rivermouth," grew out of a personal connection to the ocean and Cornwall's coastal community, and screened at the inaugural London Surf Film Festival at Riverside Studios and in the National Trust's chillout tent at Boardmasters Festival.
As a musician, I've performed and recorded with the Imperfect Orchestra and other artists across the South West of England, as well as internationally in Immenstadt im Allgäu, Germany and Saint-Renan, France.
My visual art has been exhibited in galleries throughout the UK, China and the Metaverse, reaching diverse global audiences.
Let's Talk: Whether you're a values-led organisation looking for creative support or a startup seeking strategic clarity, I'd love to hear from you.
