Meet the Team
If there’s one thing we don’t take lightly, it’s who’s on your team. Because when you’re trusting someone with your business growth, you deserve to feel completely supported – and totally confident they know their stuff.
At Thrive Bright, we’ve brought together a collective of senior strategists, creative thinkers, and tech whizzes who don’t just deliver – they get it. Our team members all run their own businesses, so understand the complexities and pressures of running a business. We are always learning, and always evolving to provide expert knowledge, support and industry insight. You’ll have one clear point of contact, and a whole team working quietly (and brilliantly) behind the scenes to make big things happen.
And if something calls for a skill outside our core crew? No stress – we’ve got a black book of brilliant partners we know and trust to jump in when needed.
So, enough about us as a concept – let’s meet the actual humans behind Thrive Bright…
Becky Hope-Ross
Founder of Thrive Bright | Strategic Growth Partner | Creative Problem Solver
Thrive Bright began with a simple but powerful vision: to create a consultancy that could deliver everything a growing business needs to scale—strategically, sustainably and seamlessly.
In 2020, after 8 years in the world of journalism, radio production, marketing, tech, and sales leadership, I launched what was then Busy Bee Organisers -a business born to support heart-led entrepreneurs navigating growth. But as my clients grew, so did the vision. What started as smart support for small business owners evolved into something much bigger: a full-spectrum, expert-led growth team for established brands and scaling organisations.
That evolution became Thrive Bright.
Today, I lead a collective of senior marketers, tech specialists, branding experts and creative strategists who all share one goal: helping ambitious businesses grow with clarity and confidence. I’m also a proud member of the Chartered Institute of Marketing, and bring over a decade of experience in sales management into every strategic decision we make.
My approach is deeply personal and profoundly practical. I don’t believe in outsourcing for the sake of it or chasing trends for quick wins. I believe in building strong foundations, intelligent systems and meaningful strategy—so your business can scale without spiralling. I constantly invest in learning and development and recently completed a Diploma in Digital Marketing along with training in AI implementation.
Whether you’re refining your brand, automating your client journey, launching your next big thing, or building infrastructure to support your team—I’m here to lead that process with you.
Big-picture thinking. Bespoke strategy. One trusted team to pull it all together.
Let’s make business growth feel brilliantly joined up.
Kat Dooney
Social Media Manager | Pinterest Specialist
Kat is Thrive Bright’s resident social media strategist and Pinterest pro - the calm in the chaos of content planning. She’s here to turn your ideas into a consistent, purposeful online presence that builds real connection (not just empty likes).
With a background in both Instagram and Pinterest marketing, Kat knows what it takes to grow a community that actually converts. No gimmicks, no “secret formulas,” just strategy, creativity, and good old-fashioned consistency. She’s all about removing the overwhelm and helping businesses show up with clarity, confidence, and joy.
Whether she’s mapping out a Pinterest strategy, planning your monthly content calendar, or analysing engagement data to fine-tune what’s working, Kat makes social media feel simple -and even fun again.
Her approach is refreshingly honest: no false promises, no fluff, just a whole lot of heart and know-how. If your social media has been stressing you out or sitting on the back burner, Kat’s the one who’ll help you get it back on track and working for you, not against you.
Beka Bright
Brand Designer | Brand Strategist | Creative Director
Beka is the creative mind behind Thrive Bright's boldest brand transformations. She helps ambitious founders build brands that don't just look better, but feel right – brands that reflect where their business is now, not where it started.
Combining strategic thinking with bold, thoughtful design, Beka uncovers what's really holding a brand back before creating an identity that people connect with. Whether it's a business that's evolved, outgrown its DIY branding, or simply isn't attracting the right clients anymore, she helps founders bridge the gap between how they see their business and how the world sees it.
Her process starts long before colours, logos and typography. Through strategy, honest conversations and creative direction, she helps founders gain clarity on who they are, what makes them different and how their brand should show up. Every design decision is rooted in purpose, resulting in identities that feel confident, distinctive and built for long-term growth.
From complete rebrands and visual identity systems to creative direction and brand strategy, Beka creates brands that give founders the confidence to be seen – and remembered.
