About me

Dear Sir/Madam

After nearly ten years working in politics, I am now looking to move into the private sector to work for a high profile organisation in a fast moving environment.

A qualified journalist, I am currently working as Senior Political Adviser to a member of the shadow cabinet of the official opposition in the House of Commons. I lead on media, communications and political strategy.

Prior to this appointment I was the Senior Copywriter for the Labour Party, including during the General Election 2010. In this role I led on the content development of nationally distributed campaign material, including direct mail read by millions of people. I also trained staff and made presentations in front of large audiences.

I have useful, transferable experience and expertise to offer in a range of areas of work - such as communications, media relations and strategy. I am a confident and effective communicator, able to lead, prioritise and meet deadlines under pressure. I am also used to dealing with and working alongside senior people who demand and expect a high standard of work.

Thank you for looking at my CV and please let me know if you would like any further information.

Best wishes

William Neal
