Cover Letter
I am looking to enrich my marketing career and bring my Creative Project Management experience into a new
opportunity.
I have found tremendous fulfillment within the field of marketing, operations, and team coordination. I have helped create and streamline operations and policy for a 15-person engineering team and currently oversee
Accounting, Human Resources, Logistics, and office maintenance in addition to my Marketing obligations. I have been lucky enough to oversee all media, event planning, team coordination, social media, design and branding in my current role as Creative Project Manager for a small Durham biotech company for the last three years. My greatest achievements have come from having a true dedication to the product, a multi-camera microscope, and finding bright and engaging ways to communicate its value. I have worked closely with sales teams to execute
campaigns, coordinate and optimize conference presence, and create materials to facilitate sales with synthesized and attractive product information. I am looking to benefit a collaborative team, aligned behind a common goal.
I’m looking forward to speaking with you further about why I find this opportunity with SkyTruth so exciting, Audrey Barcus
