    Office Assistant (Runner)HBO
     - London, United KingdomFull Time
    My latest position saw me aiding in the smooth running of a large-scale production writer’s room and the surrounding office. Similar to my previous position as office runner, the role saw myself being responsible for tending to the writer’s room and making the office environment a comfortable working space for all. I tended to the writer’s and executive’s needs whether that be by providing food, drinks, stationery or conversation. My role involved everyday access to making calls, emails and entering expenses and other administrative tasks alongside the expected food, drinks and other purchases runs.
