I am a skilled copywriter, with significant experience in writing business web content, review articles (motoring, adult, travel, fashion) and a professional CV writer. My CV's are designed to capture the attention of the prospective interviewer and will almost certainly guarantee you an interview (providing the role is within your range of experience).

I am a very results orientated person with over ten years experience of leading, building, educating and inspiring a large department of sales professionals to deliver in excess of £5 million revenue per month.

I am a skilled negotiator able to persuade, upsell and promote clients to achieve an increase in revenue as well as being experienced in professional CV writing, web content and promotionalmarketing material ie: press releases and advertisements. In addition to this I have also put together training programs and courses.

I have organised large scale worldwide and local events, conferences and competition launches as well as weddings, shopping centre promotions and all manner of dinnersparties etc.

I also have a copious amount of experience within the secretarialadministrative field. I have been employed previously as an Executive Assistant for a CEO of a very large global organisation, fulfilling all areas of the PA role including travel arrangements, diary management, follow up, letters, spreadsheets and personal organisation etc.

I have a track record of delivering on time, within budget and with testimonials that demonstrate my flair and commitment.
