Carol Parker
With a strong background in marketing, focussing particularly on law firms, Carol is a strong member of the marketing team at Pearson.
She joined the team in 2022 with a particular emphasis on streamlining procedures and working on our client experience, how we look after our clients, providing them with excellent service and follow up, making sure the journey is efficient and professional with high standards in client care.
She works across our three offices in Oldham, North Manchester and Failsworth. Another part of her role is to help maintain the firm’s profile across all areas of law we cover and how we can help others with any legal issues.
Carol has been in the legal sector for 30 years and comes from a strong corporate event background. She enjoys meeting people and making connections.
Carol studied at St John’s Campus, Manchester where she obtained a Professional Certificate in Marketing (CIM).
In 2017, Carol was appointed Treasurer of Ashton Town Team which is a not-for-profit organisation promoting the town’s social, economic, cultural, environmental and regeneration programme. Carol still holds this executive position to date.
In 2021, she was presented the Ashton Town Team Outstanding Contribution Award which recognises her work with the Town Team, networking initiatives and support of local businesses.
Carol also founded two networking groups which have been hosted in Manchester, Liverpool, Preston, and Tameside.
As a volunteer at Willow Wood Hospice, in 2016, the volunteers received the Queen’s Award for Voluntary Services, an achievement she is particularly proud of.
