I have previously worked for the leading Safari Tour operator in South Africa as their Head Office Manager, as well as an Event Co-ordinator for By Word of Mouth. I believe that my experience to date has equipped me with valuable knowledge and skills relevant to take on an administrative or editing freelance position. Below is a list highlighting my experience I feel relevant to such a position: I have developed excellent computer, writing and editing skills in my current position where I am solely responsible for maintaining and updating my website (www.laverah.com). Although I did not design the website entirely on my own, I was responsible for conceptualisation as well as devising the content contained within the site. In order to increase my SEO statistics I also frequently write and submit articles to various online directories regarding the multitude of medical conditions that exist today. These articles are well researched and contain information as to how to combat the symptoms as well treatments available. My current position also involves a keen sense of marketing as I am responsible for the marketing strategy and all the relevant material. I have gained excellent management and administrative skills in my role as an Office Manager at &Beyond where I managed a team of 14 individuals, their duties and responsibilities and was responsible for the general operations and upkeep of the office. This required very good administrative skills, the ability to prioritise as well as effective time management. During my time at this company I also played an integral role in the re-branding project and was particularly responsible for the re-branding of all the corporate stationary and signage. I have developed effective organisational and planning skills during my time at By Word Of Mouth where I dealt regularly with clients, suppliers and colleagues at all levels. This experience, along with my time at Crown Society Special Event Caterers in London enabled me to interact with and play an integral role in coordinating events for a variety of prestigious public figures. My recent position I feel particularly developed my ability to deal effectively with people from a wide variety of backgrounds. Above all, these roles involved attention to detail as well as customer service skills. My creative, energetic and pro-active abilities were developed both through my time at By Word Of Mouth as well as at The Thistle & Guoman Hotel Group, where I helped to conceptualise and coordinate various Public Relation Events. This was often done to meet very strict deadlines and gave me useful experience of prioritising tasks and managing my time effectively as well as effective database management (client records, enquiries, quotations, follow ups, confirmations, invoicing etc) I am currently self-employed and looking to supplement my income through part-time work and am particularly interested in applying my current skills and experience in a freelance position. I am a well presented and well spoken individual who is organised and reliable with a fun loving outlook on life. I attended an IEB private school and received a distinction for English Language. I have excellent formal and creative writing abilities as well as a good command of the English Language (verbal and written). I am both reliable and determined. I appreciate your time is valuable and am grateful to you for taking the time to read this. I would very much welcome the opportunity of an interview where we could discuss the details pertaining to this position. I am available at any time and I look forward to hearing from you.
