I research and write a large amount of the editorial for our flagship Your Local Link magazine, which is delivered to over 90,000 homes and businesses. From advertorial requests to local business news, the content is very varied – and therefore I regularly exercise flexibility, creativity and my ability to learn new things quickly and effectively. I also write my own monthly opinion column, and my own expert column on technology, gaming and gadgets.

My role involved many things, including project management, liaising with clients, copywriting, conducting interviews, brainstorming, account management and supporting colleagues in house. The role showcased my talents as a writer, project manager, and my ability to work quickly and effectively under pressure. Although I originally started the role with a view to simply support with admin and small jobs, I expanded my duties upon demonstration of my copywriting abilities and… Show more My role involved many things, including project management, liaising with clients, copywriting, conducting interviews, brainstorming, account management and supporting colleagues in house.

As a General Manager I maximised my day by spending time with my team on the shop floor, setting fun and productive challenges that develop consultants to become the best they can be, whilst maintaining a fun and balanced atmosphere. I always took pride in putting my team first, ensuring that they were happy and healthy at work and providing the necessary environment in store for them to perform to their best abilities.

I always took pride in putting my team first, ensuring that they were happy and healthy at work and providing the necessary environment in store for them to perform to their best abilities. Since being promoted to a seconded position as a Branch Manager in a small store in August I passed and become permanent, moving on to another secondment as General Manager of a much larger store. My store was crowned Store of the Month - an achievement not seen in that store for some years. Show less

I left a well-paid and full-time role at Vodafone for a bit of a chance on a new position in Carphone Warehouse. With an ambition to grow my career into the higher ranks, I saw more opportunity and chose to change companies.

The area management team created the role of Senior Sales Associate for me upon transferring back to York as the store was too small for an Assistant Manager role.

When the SM of Carphone Warehouse offered me a new and exciting opportunity, I decided to take it and see how my career would expand in a new segment of the industry. Show less

I was given the opportunity to step up to an Acting AM role following the loss of the existing AM after exceeding expectations at an invite-only development programme and going above and beyond in my job role as BA. I assisted the DM and SM in coaching and developing a team of 20 as well as all of my roles as Senior Sales. I would have stayed on as permanent AM, however personal circumstances required me to move back to my hometown of York and I had to transfer.

I was snapped up by one of the editors of the newspaper after giving him a session on the Samsung Galaxy SII in Vodafone. I had my own technology column in the newspaper’s entertainment segment, which was a full page. I reviewed games – old and new – and voiced my own opinions on the industry. Each one of my articles to date received a 5-star review from the readers. I left this job to move back to York.
