    Birmingham, United KingdomFull Time
    My current role involves collaborating with strategic, technical and creative teams to execute high quality digital projects within agreed scope and budget. Working on the Hilton digital platforms, I am responsible for balancing the quality, resource and cost of dynamic digital projects. Key responsibilities of my role are risk management, project planning, change control, relationship management, quality assurance, scheduling and liaising with both suppliers and clients. I also ensure all project life-cycle documentation, such as project plans, content inventories and build requirements are produced. Working for a digital product studio, I have become proficient at devising user experience solutions for clients and value a data-driven, user-centred approach. I have extensive experience using Wordpress, as well as project management tools such as Wrike, Jira and Synergist.

     - Birmingham, United KingdomFull Time
    I managed a range of projects from retained projects such as corporate website management retainers for Hammerson and Carillion to innovation programmes for London Midland trains. I quickly progressed to work exclusively on several fast-paced Hilton accounts. This included managing the maintenance of various platforms for international stakeholders as well as standalone projects such as campaign landing page build or implementing new widgets. In July 2018, I gained my PRINCE2 Foundation qualification which taught me the best-practice, comprehensive framework for planning and managing waterfall projects. The rigorous PRINCE2 approach taught me the necessary steps to take to ensure the success of any type of project.
