I produce detailed social data reports for clients and prospects. By analysing the key conversations around your brand and industry, I am able to identify the opportunities and gaps in any communications mix. I work between the client services and sales teams to advise on what content, platforms and actions are needed to improve your social, mobile and wider digital channels.

I teach at workshops given to children between the ages of 11 and 19. The workshops will usually involve teaching a language such as java or python, giving the children experience making games on platforms such as Android or using tools such as Scratch. Along with this I have also been part of workshops that teach children how to build computers and create robots using Lego's Mindstorm tools.

The job entailed; making sure that the shop floor was fully stocked and ready for the staff on the next shift, taking orders and handling the money to and from the tills, running food to the customers and to also check the dates of the stock.

The job was primarily a complaints/helpdesk department. I would transfer funds between accounts for customers, set up new payments, direct customers to relevant sections of the bank, set up meetings for in-branch as well as keeping to personal and group targets.
