Bruce Cooper is a freelance writer and colleague whose opinion and work ethic I have come to respect and admire. I’ve worked with Bruce since 2006 and during that time he has completed a number of tough assignments for me, including researching a travel guide for Port Elizabeth published by Fishers Travel SOS. His work is always well researched and edited, clean, and delivered to deadline.

In 2008 and subsequent years, Bruce worked as part of a team producing daily financial news analyses for sub-Saharan Africa and sourcing information for weekly and monthly sector reviews for telecoms, banking, mining and M&A for a pay-to-view news site: www.securities.com. He always produced excellent work, never missed a deadline, and often went the extra mile. He ably ran the team for three months from Oct – Dec 2009 to enable me to take a sabbatical.

Bruce is thoroughly professional in his approach and highly competent. You can brief him and be sure that the job will be done.

Top qualities: great results; good communication; high integrity and always on time.  ̶  Sharon Davis, business editor and writer
