Following my return from London, I joined Keating & Associates as an Account Executive, working with large clients such as Dairygold, Mars Wrigley and HSBC on projects such as rolling out the successful GLT national and regional advertising campaign, launching various HSBC research to media and achieving national coverage and media relations with agri media on behalf of Dairygold.

Account Executive across both the Business and Personal Finance Services division and the Consumer division of Consolidated PR, working across a broad range of high profile clients including, American Express, The Payments Council, Creative Auto Enrolment, British Chambers of Commerce, the British Franchise Association and Network Rail.

Having excelled on the Graduate Placement program I progressed to Account Assistant level working across clients in the Business and Personal Finance Division, liaising with media and clients on a daily basis to gain coverage and build strong company branding for clients within the media.

Started at Consolidated PR on their much sought after graduate programme where I worked on clients across the Business and Personal Finance Division including well known, global companies such as American Express and also on domestic public affairs campaigns securing coverage in national and regional media, both print and online.

Managing a team of six within a large retail environment. The role included preparing for major sale events such as mid season/Christmas sale, area visits and visits from company directors. In the current economic environment, it is important that myself and my team work that little bit harder to ensure we stay ahead of the competition.

During my time working for H+K within WHPR across tech and consumer accounts, my duties included compiling press coverage for clients; liaising with regional and national press; drafting, editing and issuing press releases and assisting account executives on all client accounts.

This job introduced me to retail and it was here that I learned the basics in how to deliver excellent customer service and develop my interpersonal skills.
