About me

Hello Sir/Madam,

I'm writing to support my application for the Copywriter role you've advertised. I feel I have the requisite skills and drive to succeed in it, and have built up good experience from my nearly two-year role at Groupon as a Creative Writer.

I've worked with a number of high-end clients, ranging from Michelin-starred restaurants such as Roux at Parliament Square, to big-ticket events including Bond in Motion. I've also written more hard-hitting copy for charity campaigns with Barnardos and Laura Lynn, and produced quirky copy for free giveaways. In addition, I've gained experience in SEO writing, having produced a number of merchant pages for clients such as BHS and Blacks. I've always strived to give myself a varied workload and thus increase my versatility, and now feel comfortable shifting my writing tone depending on the brief.

Working with Groupon, I've had to interpret a global strategy and implement it in my local comms copy. I've also frequently liaised with sales reps in order to develop my copy and ensure that all key selling points are hit. As secretary of my local Amnesty international group I'm responsible for the upkeep of its Facebook and Twitter pages, and I also set up a Wordpress blog at university, thus being well versed in all forms of digital communication.

I'd very much like the chance to work for your company, and develop and export its brand across the world using my skillset.

Regards,

Tom Cook
