Awesome person to know and a pleasure to work with; ideally I'd want this contractor to move house and country...! Highly recommended!!
Work Experience
I have worked in the sustainable energy profession as a project manager for 7 years. My responsibilities have included managing budgets and teams, producing PR materials, writing media releases, designing and producing newsletters and populating websites.
In conjunction with my profession I have worked as a copywriter and SEO writer for the past 2 years, a niche which I developed whilst on maternity leave with our second child, and I now work full time as a freelance writer.
Aug 2010 to Present
Freelance Consultant, Writer, Researcher and Editor at Self Employed
Having worked as a freelance writer for the past 12 months in a part time capacity, I have now left my employed job to focus on setting myself up as a freelance consultant in the environmental field.
I have secured several contracts already including providing news articles for a sustainable energy company, conducting research for an international energy trading company and providing content for a number of sustainability related websites.
Longer term I am hoping to continue my CPD and become involved in more technical work, advising stakeholders on sustainable building design, practices and policy whilst continuing to develop my communication skills and SEO work in order to maintain a high profile for myself and for the projects I am working on.
I am currently developing my blog / website to support this new venture and am hoping to begin studying for an MSc in Sustainability this September in order to further develop my technical knowledge and skills.
Education
I hold a BSc in Ecology, have a Diploma in Management, am a qualified project manager, have attended short courses on sales, marketing, email marketing, telesales, PR, writing press releases, article writing for the press and hold a City and Guilds and my ICS level 2 in customer service in call centres.
