Head Of Media
CurrentIn September ‘23, still a volunteer, I took on a much bigger role at the football club. This was following the departure of our Head of Media and Marketing Josh Verroken. I started to do the twitter feeds for all the games, as well as editing all the footage for games and interviews. As I was just starting uni this was rather time consuming, but my work was not unnoticed.In October, I agreed to become the club’s Head Of Media, on a paid contract, having been a volunteer for the past 15 months. This was alongside my studies at UCFB, which worked perfectly. A big milestone for me reached as I look to progress on. It was an amazing feeling after putting in a lot of work for a few weeks when needed. Whilst my title was ‘Head of Media’, I also took upon the role of Social Media Manager essentially, making sure all our social pages were kept up to date and that we were getting content out everywhere. I decided to start making highlight packages for the club, which go out on YouTube. This was a big project for me as it was something that I had never done before so was rewarding when they came off well. As well as that, plenty of new opportunities arose such as the chance to do live commentary. I did this for National League TV, 247TV and our club radio, Radio Clarets. As I continue to work with the Clarets, there is not a day of work I don’t enjoy and I look forward to every next challenge!
