Rae Dawson
Marketing Assistant
Rae joined Qlic IT in 2023, starting out as the Office Administrator before stepping into her current role as Marketing Assistant. She works closely with Jenny to support all aspects of the marketing function, from creating engaging content and managing social media to coordinating campaigns and assisting with research and admin. Alongside her marketing role, Rae is also the organiser for Qlic IT’s internal events, including team incentives, End of Year Parties, and Charity Volunteering Days.
Rae has come to see how vital marketing is at an IT support provider for charities. She’s proud to help promote IT services that give nonprofits the confidence and tools they need to fulfil their missions.
Rae’s dedication to the charity sector also extends beyond her work at Qlic IT. She recently ran the London Marathon in aid of Evelina London Children’s Charity, raising funds to support vital care for children and families. Her personal commitment to charitable causes gives her marketing work an even greater sense of purpose.
Outside of work, Rae enjoys spending time with her family and going to the gym. A fun fact that not everyone knows, she’s a retired competitive dancer and holds national titles.
