About me
To whom it may concern,
As a creative and proactive Journalism graduate with over 18 months of professional experience as an Online Journalist, writing original, high-quality and engaging content, I am confident this role is perfect for me.
I am NCTJ accredited and have a profound ability to stay up-to-date with industry trends and a great familiarity with content management systems, managing online communities and the modern media landscape.
Previously, I managed two successful websites and wrote across three more, ranging from digital marketing, to digital government and public sector procurement.
In my previous role as a web content editor I sourced content, interviewed industry professionals, built brand awareness on social, created daily newsletters, liaised with numerous PR agencies, attended industry-specific events, sourced and edited photographs and employed tracking codes to sustain and grow successful sites with over 80,000 subscribers.
I have a professional and approachable style for engaging with the wider industry and I am used to communicating with key account holders and colleagues to ensure every level is informed.
I was also a freelance copy editor for an American marketing site, highlighting my high attention to detail and proofreading ability.
I'm looking to make a difference in a new challenge, using my writing skills to create change for the better. I am passionate about giving back to the community; I currently volunteer at my local community radio station, producing a show aimed at showcasing local projects and charities making a difference around East London.
I think that my enthusiasm and passion for my career, alongside my previous experience, would help me to do an excellent job and make a real difference in this role.
I hope to hear from you soon!
Yours faithfully,
Huw Jenkins
