I am a responsible and motivated person that loves thinking of new and creative ideas outside of the box. I have respect for others, an open mind and a love of life. I enjoy working as a part of a team and I am also self-motivated for working solo when necessary. I enjoy challenges and learning new things and work well against the clock.

EMPLOYMENT

PROGRAM COORDINATOR

IESE Business School, Barcelona

September 2007 – February 2013: I managed and coordinated various programmes for the international executive education department. Our participants came from all over the world to participate and my objective was to produce a seamless program from start to finish for all logistics, including programme material, for participants, staff and professors. I maintained client management before, during and after the program had finished. I wrote copy and edited text for the department’s brochures and mail shots in English. I managed the department’s social media presence on Twitter and LinkedIn. I also played a main role in the strategic plan in getting the social media project off the ground.

ENGLISH TEACHER

Oxbridge, Barcelona, Spain

September 2006 – August 2007: I taught Business English classes and I also taught children of all school ages for all levels. I wrote lessons for other English teachers and I also observed classes which were taught by current and new teachers.

PA/BUYER

Pivetal, Southampton, UK

August 2004 – April 2006: I provided office management in a telecommunication environment for a team of high level managers and directors. I organised business events, arranged travel and visas for both staff and clients and prioritised incoming communications. I dealt with confidential documentation and company expenses and discretion was always required. It was also important for me to build up relationships with suppliers as I would negotiate contracts for the company’s IT supplies.

DEPUTY EDITOR & WRITER

Online Blog – whoworeitbetter.co.uk

April 2011 – March 2012: As a fashion writer and deputy editor for whoworeitbetter my objective was to have at least one fashion article published each day. I led and advised a team of fashion writers which involved editing their work, amending where needed for improvement, helping them to achieve their goals and fact checking. I also wrote articles for the webpage when required. I promoted the articles on social media sites such as Twitter and Facebook.

MUSIC REVIEWER

January 2012 – Present: I write articles reviewing album and single releases for a popular music news website.
