About me
I am an outstanding individual, with an overwhelming desire to bring my flair, originality and motivation to the creative table. I have worked mostly in public relations, marketing and policy work, but where my real talent lies is in writing. I have had two novels published and I am currently writing another two. My creative talent with the pen has also seen me write speeches for Government ministers and Prime Ministers, whilst I have delivered some highly successful events in the public, private and third sectors.At the moment, I am taking charge of my thriving freelance business, dealing with global requests for creative writing; advertising/public relations plans; copywriting; article/blog writing; digital photography; digital photographic/film editing, as well as editing/proofreading. Since doing this, I have successfully delivered amazing and inspiring work that has had my own personal fingerprint on it, such as eye-catching posters for local shops to help revive our high-street; or developing flyers for a number of charities to boost fundraising; orchestrating advertising plans for several companies to boost growth; ghostwriting a novella; editing a short movie, and writing hundreds of blogs for people and companies.
I am however looking for a new challenge by going into the world of media production. Working on set is something that excites me; I am eager to get going and I have got no problem with starting at the bottom and working my way up the ranks.
Referees:
I have a number of references from a wide variety of fields - politics, charities, previous employers. I can provide these on request.
Additional information:
No matter where I have worked, I have delivered first-class communication. Both my written and verbal communication skills are second to none - an ability that has allowed me to write orchestrated advice and guidance on policy matters at the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP), informative press releases at Toyota UK, and relay in-depth Ministerial briefings at the Ministry for Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG). I also take pride in my diplomatic demeanour, a flair that has ensured that my relations with ministers, key stakeholders and the public are delivered in a calm, confident manner.
I am no stranger to long-term projects that focus on strategical goals. Whilst at MHCLG, I was responsible for three governmental, nationwide projects, including Near Neighbours and Remembering Srebrenica. As part of the development of these projects, I implemented targets and milestones in the projects’ funding stream, objectives that had to be met at certain intervals to ensure that the project was on-track and was bringing the Government the maximum value for money. My attention to detail and passion for quality allowed these projects to flourish, ensuring that they developed with their own financial initiative, which at the same time restricted taxpayers’ spending.
Needless to say, I am a professional, enthusiastic individual, with substantial experience at administration. I thrive in industrious environments, yet my creative talent and pursuit for perfection remain undiminished. I am a self-motivated and adaptable individual, so I am able to work well by myself, whilst also contributing to the team ethic. Thanks to my talent for organisation and experience at working in very busy offices, I am proficient in the meeting of deadlines and re-prioritising work, whilst I am also very experienced at most computer packages.
