About me
I have 5 years' experience in working for a full service advertising & communications agency. My clients to date have been primarily in retail, with a heavy focus on campaigns requiring TV and stills photography. Working as a Senior Account Manager, I have developed exceptional organisation and time management skills, as well as numerical and verbal skills. I can confidently lead a team, using my forward thinking attitude and initiative, as well as support team members to work collaboratively. I have lead and successfully won new business pitches, and feel comfortable in presenting both strategy and creative work. I also have experience in brand positioning/modelling, and approach all new briefs with strategic thinking. I can confidently manage campaigns end to end, through from sourcing suppliers, production, post-production through to delivery and evaluation and have experience in Business Planning. I have a strong interest in content, online platforms and experiences and have managed Social Media accounts, content plans and content strategy for several clients - this stems from my background in Journalism. I have also worked as a Marketing Manager launching a new athleisure fashion brand, and have always had a passion for the fashion industry. I have managed national brands.
