About me

Dear Sir/ Madam

Good day, my name is Jacqui Sack. For the last year I have been working at ORT SA , I was originally hired on a 3 month contractual basis to be the Graphic Designer and marketing assistant which was then made into a permanent contract. I was then made the in-house Graphic Designer, marketing and fundraising assistant which has subsequently been adjusted to Creative Co-ordinator. During the past year my duties have included the graphic design work for all the departments, maintaining and updating the company website, the admin for the marketing department, assisting the fundraising (business development) manager with concepts and designs for implementation in fundraising events. I am also the photographer for the majority of the events, I help set up and co-ordinate events held both by ORT SA and its sister company ORT JET. I have recently started doing the video recording at their events and editing the footage, which they then show to clientele. This footage also gets uploaded to their website and YouTube channel.

The YouTube channel is also one of my responsabilities to regularly maintain, convert videos and find videos that best promote various aspects in the programmes that we currently run. Originally the company uploaded videos to YouTube directly, without directing traffic to their YouTube channel nor their website. Since I have been there, I have rectified this, as well as directed traffic to various social media (facebook and twitter accounts included).

The reason for me wanting to leave my current employment is because I feel that they can no longer offer me room to grow. From a creative aspect, I feel I am approaching a plateau due to the limited design requirements of the company, which is a concern for me as I am an individual that strives to learn new things, reach new heights and keep my creative juices flowing.

Reasons why I think I would be of value to your company is that I demonstrate the ability to lead, present ideas and concepts at staff meetings and potential clients, strategise events and exercises to promote the company and colleague exercises, direct the staff and fellow members in what the vision and value is of an idea/event as well enter into discussions as to the pros and cons of various concepts put forward. These attributes were recognised, and I was asked to be a member of the company's internal commitees, namely the Visions and Values Committee as well as the Health and Safety Committee.

Kind Regards,

Jacqui Sack
