I have developed a career for myself and gained many transferrable skills. For example: strong communication skills, using my own initiative, excellent computer skills, analysing and problem solving as well as effective team working. I have gained relevant skills and experience in coordinating and supporting various projects within an organisation and am now available to you for freelance work.

These skills include having a keen eye for detail, managing stakeholder engagement and expectations, establishing and maintaining monitoring procedures and audit requirements in European funded projects, project procurement, proposal and report writing, analysing financial data and budget management. My skills include having had the responsibility of ensuring all contracts are aligned with various procurement regulations, processes and procedures. I offer a high level of administration support including social media, marketing and PR activities.

I have excellent customer service skills and liaise effectively at all levels. I have valuable experience of working closely with key stakeholders and government bodies; for e.g. European Commission, Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG), Local Authorities, and European Funding Office.

I have solid experience in managing large scale events for both the public and private sectors; this included conferences for up to 200 delegates, networking events and workshops. I have also had the privilege of working with private individuals in arranging weddings and civil ceremonies as well as seeking out those special locations for an event to remember.

As a dedicated self-motivated freelancer, I pride myself on delivering projects within budget and to specified timescales, whilst ensuring the overall project objectives are met. I am an able communicator and a confident negotiator whereby I was responsible for negotiating and procuring services and products as well as supplier contracts large organisations and estate residential portfolios.

I feel I have consolidated my skills through my own personal development, having recently completed a Prince 2 Foundation Certificate in Project Management as well as a Level 6 Certificate in Management Studies (CMS) in 2011. I went on to gain a better understanding of bid writing for funded projects to assist my employers’ strategic approach to project delivery and outcome. In 2012, I completed a short course in bid writing as well as organised in-house training programmes for organisations. Other training courses I have undertaken include workshops in finance and procurement, equality and diversity, health and safety, tender writing and facilities management.

I am competent in using various computer packages; for e.g. Microsoft Office, Management and Control Information System (MCIS), Agresso, Salesforce CRM, Project Implementation Management System (PIMS), Mailchimp, Survey Monkey, Linkedin and also have a good commercial understanding of business needs having been responsible for the recruitment of new business to organisations.

I am now seeking a new opportunity at a Virtual Project Coordinator where no project is to small. I offer special rates to Pre Start & Start Up SMEs. Talk to me, I would be delighted to hear about your offer.
