About me
Dear Sir/Madam,
I have recently joined Creative Pool and have seen that you are looking for a copywriter. I have over seven years experience as a commissioned freelance journalist and also have over 10 years experience working across a range of media platforms, from publication to photography, editing web content, editing photo's, video's and music, sub-editing articles and much more.
I have been freelancing for Commercial Motor Magazine since 2005, having secured a work placement, but having no knowledge of the haulage industry or human resources and rights in the workplace I still impressed the team with my research skills and understanding of my subject matter(s), as well as my ability to produce good copy with no editing at all. After a week and a half into my two week placement I was offered a chance to freelance through university and still freelance for the magazine now.
I am currently freelancing for planetgolfreview.com, planetgolfreview.co.uk and the Gecko Euro Pro Tour, subbing copy and preparing press releases (having little knowledge on golf when I first started). I am also editor (and writer) of the hotel and spa section for planetgolfreview but I'm now looking for a position where I can expand my expertise and I feel this position would suit me, especially with my background.
As you can see from my freelance history I am very adaptable when it comes to any subject matter. In fact I hope I won't be penalised here but I just adore writing, researching and editing. I live and breathe journalism and writing. I'm just looking for that chance to develop further and to use my skills to do what I love doing most.
Please see that I have attached my CV and some PDFs examples of my work. If you wish to see any web examples, these can be provided on request.
I look forward to hearing from you soon,
Kind Regards
Charmaine Hibbert
