Having been made redundant from my most recent role due to coronavirus, I am actively seeking a new opportunity in either events or marketing & communications.
I have a wealth of working experience in different industries, complimented by very strong organisation and communication skills, proficient I.T. knowledge and a good grasp of social media.
