About me

For the last 6 months I've been working for The Medical Defence Union which is a mutual company owned by its members, who include doctors, dentists and other healthcare professionals.This is the UK's leading medical defence organisation and provides medico-legal advice, assistance and professional indemnity.

My role as Marketing Communications Executive was working in the studio, providing marketing support to both sales personnel and marketing specialists including design services. I helped co-ordinate the specification, development and distribution of communication materials to members / prospective membersutilising a full range of marketing communications which includedliterature production, advertising, direct marketing, print production, sales promotion and the website.

As well as providing me with valuable experience in core design applications, my role enabled me to develop a wider understanding of how a successful membership organisation is run.

I have gained a lot of confidence workingclosely with different stakeholders of the MDU,building important working relationships with colleagues and customers alike. I have good computer/IT skills in Adobe Suite, Quark and Word and can pick up new technology and databases quickly. I am a team player in the office and I think I work well under pressure, organise and prioritise my time well.

I am now looking for a new challenge to progress my true career in a creative environment. I enjoy the busy office atmosphere and believe I could make a positive contribution to this role. I would really appreciate the opportunity to work for yourselves and get my first break in creative design.
