I am ambitious, capable and intuitive when given a project, brief or idea to work with. I am ideally looking for a job role that will grow my business acumen, creativity and build upon new and old skills.

I graduated from University in June 2009 with a 2:1 in Interior Architecture. Whilst at University, I was always placed in Project Managerial roles on projects such as our end of year exhibitions (managing upto 30 people) and small group projects (four or five people). I almost always manage to bring a team together even if some team members don't seem to gel. I enjoy working with people and have been put in many positions of responsibility.

After university I was given a great opportunity to be ‘Marketing Manager' for a start-up property sales company. I co-ordinated press releases, newsletters, website build; design, stock management and costing budgets. As the company grew we became a media group where my management covered; overseas property sales, KMVF media group, Timbrells, Gecko Invested and KMVF depot. I scripted and managed all website, print and marketing content across the five branches. I implemented a direct mailout campaign to advertise products along with an e-marketing campaign. I had the opportunity to manage; I successfully coached two designers through product launches, novel publishing and website builds. This role gave me experience in managing budgets, often having to find affordable and effective ways to spread our message. I have strong mathematical and IT ability, exercised at KMVF Media, that has enabled me to monitor monthly budgets, RRP Pricing, audience figures and quotes. I have implemented business and marketing plans amongst and worked to timed deadlines. The nature of a start-up company meant that I required a strong initiative to gain customers, visibility and locate local grants.

I have prior knowledge of marketing within the arts environment after completely a sales and marketing internship at Creation Theatre Company. This spring boarded me into my previous job at KMVF. I thoroughly enjoyed my role there as I saw how a theatre works within head office, back stage, front of house and how important publicity is.

I have been fortunate to have been placed in a diverse range of roles that have developed me into a hardworking, passionate and confident employee. Through hard work and leadership amongst many teams I have realised the need for a diplomatic and motivational attitude to ensure a great working relationship within the team. I enjoy gaining new experience and challenges in many areas and always put my all into any challenge I am given.
On a personal note, I have great attention to detail. I am tenacious towards deadlines, solving problems and team management. I enjoy responsibility and work well under pressure. I become self-motivated where needed and have learnt the need for organisation in the workplace. I am friendly, confident and ambitious; flourishing in positions of responsibility, creativity and coaching.
