About me

Hello,

I'm getting in touch as I'm extremely interested in the copywriter position you've advertised.

Based in London, I'm a trained journalist (BA in Broadcast Journalism) who currently works as a copywriter for a digital media agency. In my present role I work creating large amounts of short and long form copy for clients including Philips, Sainsbury's and Heinz.

I've written a large amount of SEO content for websites, social media campaigns, press releases, print campaigns and advertorials, and I'm fantastic at writing eye-catching, original copy that suits a brand's identity and meets corporate guidelines. I'm also extremely IT and social media literate and have conceptualised and managed several successful online and email based marketing projects.. My extensive experience working in both media production and as an administrator means I've developed exceptional organisational skills and that I'm comfortable working under pressure to meet tight deadlines.

As you'd expect from a former journalist, as well as possessing excellent research and editing skills, I'm used to communicating effectively with people both face to face and through my copy. I have an adaptable writing style, an excellent command of spelling and grammar and a strong creative streak - outside my day job I have had my creative writing performed on National TV, BBC Radio 4 and developed by the BFI and the director Rankin. I have a strong knowledge of the retail sector and I'm also skilled at developing and structuring briefs in order to produce a finished product that exceeds my client's expectations.

In short, I'm a conscientious and hard-working individual with a real passion for copywriting and I'd relish the opportunity to demonstrate my dedication and abilities to you in person.

yours,

Jez Gee
