About me

Dear Sir/Madam,

I'm an ambitious journalist, copy writer and sub-editor, confident writing across a number of verticals. I excel when given editorial freedom but write equally well to house styles. I've spent the last two years working full time at Protein Journal (a global publication specialising in emerging trends and innovations) as a staff writer, sub-editor and often acting online editor. I've also been a freelance journalist for the last four years, working for a number of top magazines.

One of the many facets of Protein brand is providing consumer insight to brands big and small. This involves not only researching statistics but also creating them from surveys and studies we've conducted ourselves. This insight goes into both reports and editorial content. Working at Protein and writing for the journal and online has kept me on the cusp of consumer culture, placing particular importance on strong angles and insights.

With Protein Journal being quarterly, a lot of my time is spent writing and editing the online feed. From January to August this year I was acting online editor at Protein and since then I have continued many of the editing duties. Aside from editing and managing the CMS, I write daily headlines, kicks and stand-firsts comfortably - across social platforms - with a keen eye for SEO. In the last year Protein has almost doubled its online readership since I took control of social media, scheduling Facebook posts, tweets, weekly newsletters and monthly forums.

Aside from working on the journal I have been heavily involved in Protein's client work. I have worked on campaigns, writing, subbing and commissioning for brands such as Microsoft, Samsung, Puma and Lee Cooper. I imagine Protein operates in a similar way to Naked Communications so my skills would transfer well.

I hope to hear from you soon.

All the best,

Alex
