Melissa Hopkins has setup a consultancy, but is so far keeping quiet on its direction and business, as she explores career opportunities.
The popular media industry figure was blindsided when she was made redundant as chief marketing and audience officer at Seven West Media.
“Golden Eagle Advisory has officially hatched,” Hopkins said in a post on LinkedIn.
“It is an opportunity for me to spread my wings and explore new opportunities, remits and industries by providing strategic and business advice.”
After losing her job at Seven Hopkins said she felt worthless, but now she’s excited to “mix things up and grow”.
“Day 1 done and dusted and I am super excited about exploring the frontiers ahead and already connecting with some amazing peeps,” she said.
“Most on the QT for the moment - but in due time I will share more.
“Playing outside my career sandpit on the wider beach is going to be fun."
