About me

Currently, I am working for Skills for Care as Head Administrator. My role carries many responsibilities, including arranging and booking travel, couriers, external meeting rooms, and minute taking for my line manager along with regional managers. I am responsible for all administrative accounts and am the first port of call for outside companies. I also handle invoices, purchase orders, and all general admin duties. Prior to this role, I was Assistant Editor for Sweet and Maxwell. I have gained a vast knowledge about the publishing world and how to liaise with different people on all levels. I was responsible for my own list of twelve books and managing the authors attached to those titles. I am confident using different publishing systems on the PC and online and have vast knowledge of how to copyedit and proofread legal jargon. I also worked for Itchy Media, as City Editor. My role taught me about how to not only find and write the perfect story, but how to edit other writer's work and make my writing appeal to an appropriate audience. I wrote and edited media reviews and features and was in charge of my own team of about ten writers, managing their workload and delegating stories and features for them to write. I also wrote my own weekly online blog, which focused on culture, food and restaurant reviews, and events in the Sheffield area. I had to be confident meeting and interviewing celebrities as well.
