CHARITY BENGERT

Marketing and Communications Specialist

Bringing stories to life with clarity and purpose.

Hi! I’m Charity Bengert, a marketing and communications specialist with 10+ years of experience helping brands communicate with purpose. I turn complex ideas into clear, compelling content that connects, engages, and inspires action.

About Me

Creative Strategy Meets Clear Communication

I specialize in storytelling, content creation, and strategic communication that turns big ideas into relatable, results-driven messaging. From marketing campaigns to internal comms, I bring clarity and structure to every project.

With experience across diverse industries—fashion, pharma, construction, and nonprofits—I offer a fresh, flexible approach tailored to your goals. I combine creativity and data-driven insights to develop communication strategies that make an impact.

Now based in Ghent, Belgium, I’m originally from Canada and bring a global mindset to my work. Outside the office, you’ll find me curating playlists, watching horror movies, or racing down hills on my bike.

What I offer

  • Developing audience-first strategies and high-impact content to strengthen your brand and reach.

  • Crafting compelling articles, blog posts, newsletters, and brand storytelling that resonate.

  • Keeping budgets on track and projects within scope - armed with nothing but a perfectly formatted spreadsheet.

  • Making complex topics accessible and engaging across digital platforms and print.

Work Experience

A Non-Linear Journey with Real-World Impact

From cleaning the training pool at a scuba shop to working the rush at a Japanese restaurant, I’ve done it all—and each experience has shaped my adaptability, resilience, and creativity.

I’ve worked in film production, retail, fashion, and construction, wearing hats that span marketing, communications, and project management. I thrive in fast-paced environments, love solving problems, and bring equal parts structure and imagination to every role.
