About me
I have recently completed my BA (Hons, 2.1) degree in advertising at
the University of Chester and am keen to pursue a career within the
advertising and marketing industry.
Over my three years spent studying the topic i have experience many of
the potential working areas within the industry from the creative side
to the account handling side.
In my second year i was award the position of project manager on a live
brief to be completed during an experiential learning (work experience)
module. This project gave me an excellent opportunity to improve my
management skills and learn the best ways in which to struct a team of
people to successfully deliver a product within a specific time frame.
This experience also gave me the perfect opportunity to learn engage
with clients and how to make them feel part of the design
process.
Aside from this in my third year i was given the opportunity to work as
a creative within a Manchester based advertising company. Here i worked
in a team on three briefs all of which were based within the B2B
market. This gave me an excellent idea of what is required from
creatives and how to work successfully as part of a team. It also gave
me an insight into the variances between B2B selling over a regular
consumer focused campaign message.
In summary i am a hard working individual with a genuine passion for
advertising & marketing. I am aware that i still have much to learn
about the inner workings of the industry but am highly driven to learn
and progress my own skills and knowledge in order to succeed.
