E53: The view from Alex Willis’ window

Alexandra Willis is having a very good career, as she oversees strategy and execution of communications, content and digital for the All England Club, otherwise known as Wimbledon.We went to SW19 - before the lockdown! - to talk to Alex for some careers advice and to ask her two of her favourite questions: can we get a ticket (two together for 2021?) and what does she do for the other 50 weeks of the year when there’s not one of sport’s greatest events taking place outside her office window.You’ll have noticed that we’ve been putting out more podcasts recently in response to a large jump in listeners during the current lockdown. This week we’ve done one every day, and we’ll do the same next week.When it all settles down a bit, we’ll look again at how many podcasts we do, whether we go back to one a week, or whether there’s an appetite for more, perhaps three a week, each with a slightly different focus.More than anything we want to be useful, and to do that we need your help to tell us what’s good and what isn’t. To that end, get in touch via email on the site where you can sign up for the Unofficial Partner weekly newsletter.
