With over 20 years experience across all areas of marketing, the focus here is on delivering demonstrable value in the new economy. Companies need to manage budgets and cash flows and continue to market their services and products to achieve their targets. There are many instances where a business requires a specific activity that is either not covered by their existing resources or cannot be handled in-house. This is where I step in. I am the owner of Flair Marketing flair-marketing.co.uk and offer marketing and copywriting services on a flexible basis. From providing help shaping the marketing strategy, drafting communications plans, writing copy for brochures and websites, crafting publicity and PR messages, creating articles and blogs for newsletters and sites, clients can pick and mix, as they require.

Freelance CG Designer, blender, UDK 3ds Max

10.11.10 Hello, my name is Donal Mc Anespy I currently live in Liverpool. . I Enjoy playing around on the Guitar. I love all things technology. I also love formula one racing. My family and i originated from Ireland but we moved to England so my parents might have more joy looking for work. I attended school in Wavertree and then moved to Crosby where I went to St Edmunds primary and Sacred Heart Catholic High secondary and Sixth Form. I studied ten GCSE and four A-Levels and then gained a place to study Integrated Engineering at the University of Liverpool. Throughout my life I have had a keen interest in all things technical and mechanical. During my years growing up with computers i have learned how to use the Microsoft suite with skill and have also done quite a lot of work with various computer graphics packages. I gained a grade A in Art at GCSE but did not follow that academic route as I thought it would be more effective for me to learn more in other areas of Science first. At university I found the amount of work required a challenge. The work ranged from Engineering Maths, Engineering Design to digital Electronics. I found the laboratory work very interesting and gained good ...marks for most of the hands on assessments. In the last year of University my individual project was to research... into and design an ALD (Atomic Layer Deposition Reactor) that are used in the electronics industry to lay fine layers of materials onto silicon wafers for the creation of transistors. I designed all of the components using Pro/Engineer and then used Pro/Engineers analysis tools to set up an internal and external pressure on the chamber that could estimate and display the loads on the material. I took 3 Design classes where we were walked through the stages of creating a model using Pro/Engineer, we were taught about the various extrude and feature creation tools. We were shown how to create assemblies using individual components and shown that they could be constrained to each other to make a mechanical assembly that had degrees of freedom and could mimic the real world situation. We, as a class, designed the parts of an engine cylinder with, crank, pushrod, cylinder and valves. We then used a program called Matlab to model the action and processes involved in the operation of such a cylinder in an engine, the forces and stresses involved. I have a keen interest in engineering and would like to gain an opportunity to progress in this area of work. Since I finished University I have been working as an Administrator for a Building Contracts firm where I have took over from the duties of the previous administrator. Since I last updated my CV there has been a global financial recession and jobs apparantly are harder to find, i have taken it upon myself and decided that i would like to work in areas of work relating to computer art creation and animation skills for movies and games as i think my background in engineering and my apditude towards the artistic could be an advantage to me in an area such as this. I have been teaching myself to use tools such as 3DS animation suite, Blender. and the Unreal Development Kit. In the mean time i would like any opportunity that would bring some security into my life and build on the skills that i already have to offer, i am a keen worker and a fast learner, i value the virtues of professionalism and politeness. I hope this CV has given you an interest in me enough to offer me an interview. And the possibility of a position working within your company. Donal Mc Anespy Age 26 52 Victoria Road, Crosby Liverpool L23 7XZ 0151 9245449 2007 GRADUATE (BEng Integrated Engineering H100 w/Honours) Possessing a wide engineering knowledge base and a strong educational background along with good team work experience, judgement and the ability to communicate and integrate effectively with others.

APEX Building contractors is an Incorporated Company that deals with Clients including Local Area Authorities, Councils such as Cheshire County Council and Halton Borough Council, and some North West UK surveying houses tendering for works involving Primary School refurbishment and general structural and building services. Taught how filing system works and how to keep it up to date how to create legally binding documents such as sales invoice using the stored library of APEX correspondence, how to deal with filing purchase, sales invoices recording every transactions into the day book and then transferring the information onto the second set of electronic accounts using Excel workbooks and sheets. Learned how to operate Payroll using IRIS Wages Program.

Created a Microsoft excel system that could use the existing purchase and sales ledger, Invoices recorded onto computer with Microsoft Excel, and use Excel functions and VBA programming to create a monthly purchase and sales account ledgers that could be updated with payments and have reconciled accounts set up. This would remove the need for someone skilled in the use of a program such as SAGE accounting to have a Debtors or Creditors list for monthly payment credit and debit accounts. I have increased efficiency with this simple system with the use of bespoke user forms for invoice and payment data entry and macros that can repeat monotonous tasks calculating account balances from invoices entered for up to 70 suppliers. Performed monthly Bank Reconciliation. Calculated and paid any PAYE or VAT due on quarterly activity with the use of Microsoft Excel also.

Translator/Researcher/Chinese Teacher

Experienced researcher using Chinese language with expertise in Chinese politics, history and culture, and in particular Chinese business activities in Africa. I also have 5 years experience as a Chinese-to-English translator. Last but not least, I ...am a Chinese teacher holding private or small group lessons on weekday evenings for beginners. RESEARCH: I am a researcher... specialising in China and I have worked in this position in the private sector and with NGOs. Most recently I was a researcher for NGO Global Witness, where I worked primarily on an investigation that was published in The Economist as a feature report. I studied Chinese and Politics at The School of Oriental and African Studies, and so I am familiar with current academic literature related to China and I know who the experts are. I am also familiar with a variety of Chinese language online resources including social media, blogs, news media and government databases. I provide research services in Chinese and English language and my rates are competitive. I will do an initial hour of research at half price and give you a brief report, after which you can decide whether continuing with the research is likely to be a valuable investment or not. TRANSLATION: With over five years experience in Chinese-to-English translation I am proficient in translating news articles, company reports, hand-written letters and technical documents. I combine my own skills and knowledge with the latest in assisted translation software to provide accurate and reliable translations in good time. I provide two types of translation services: First Draft Translation: a quick and professional translation of a document for informational rather than publication purposes. For this translation I may use assisted translation software, though the final translation will be fully edited by myself. I can usually do between 250-600 words an hour (depending on content). Managed Translation and Feedback: translation with separate editing. This is a full translation for which I add translator notes to the first draft and then make additional edits in consultation with the client. This is the best option if you want an accurate and reliable finished translation document for publication purposes. Such a translation can however take much longer (100-250 words an hour depending on content). For each job I can provide a free estimate based on word count and content. CHINESE TEACHING: For me, teaching Chinese is a real pleasure. For you as a beginner, learning Chinese will more often be painful. With us balanced in perfect equilibrium, I can help you to overcome the language's main challenges and uncover its great riches. However, the pleasure I get from teaching is dependant upon the seriousness with which my students take learning Chinese. If my students are not serious, then I'm probably not getting much pleasure out of it either. At this point the whole pleasure-pain balance is gone and we're spinning out of equilibrium. If you are interested in learning Chinese, first please think carefully why that is and what you want to achieve with it. Make sure it's really what you want to do. If you don't do this, there is the danger that you will begin the difficult task of learning Chinese without any real prospect of success. If you haven't been scared away by the above, then great! You're probably also wondering what my qualifications are. Apart from having Chinese language fluency, one of the most important qualifications I have is being a non-native Chinese speaker. This may sound strange. But having learnt the language from scratch up to fluency I've been through it all, I know all the challenges involved, and I also know how to overcome them. Secondly, I learnt Chinese using the best methods taught at the best universities, and so I know which teaching resources to use and what teaching methods to apply. Lastly, as I mentioned, I get pleasure from it and I enjoy seeing my students improve. Besides the hard work you put in, I know your improvement is dependent on me providing the best tuition possible, helping you to maintain your interest and seeing you through the difficult challenges ahead. I hold private and small group lessons for beginners and I hold my lessons on Mon-Thurs, evenings only. My rates are competitive. Please message for details.
