Jill Holroyd
​Principal

I've had a lifelong passion for words and stories. Thrive Communications is my latest chapter.
During a 30-year career in corporate communications, marketing and public affairs in Toronto, I worked for two of Canada's largest community colleges and a national business association. In a nutshell, my job was to win hearts and minds. Through innovative campaigns and clear, compelling content, I shaped messages that reached everyone from Premiers and Prime Ministers to students and business owners. In 2017, I left the city to return to my roots in Pembroke, Ontario. Now I'm thrilled to weave words and craft stories for wonderful clients from across Canada, right here in the beautiful Ottawa Valley.

"Jill is as strategic as she is creative, with an innate ability
to get to the heart of the story in a way that gets your audience to think, act and feel based on your desired goals.
She's a true professional with the utmost integrity and a big heart. Oh, and she's FUN, too!"
