Val Knight Email and Phone Number

Recently retired from a diverse career I still feel the need to stay connected. During the past ten years I have been the Executive Assistant to a Federal Member of Parliament, a Project Manager for a General Motors project and an Executive Assistant for a local developer. I have proven results working with a range of groups and individuals and possess solid financial knowledge and experience. I am experienced in marketing and fundraising with strong communication skills, both written and verbal. A Generalist, with a broad range of experience, I enjoy being involved with projects from planning through to implementation. Currently, I am seeking short term contract work in a support position.COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENTMember of Committee to celebrate 200th anniversary War of 1812Member of Operation Hero CommitteeMember of Base Borden Run CommitteeVolunteer for Georgian College Cenotaph CommitteeParticipant in “Thought Leadership” Georgian College Volunteer Municipal, Provincial and Federal Elections Organizer of Fundraising Dinner with Guest SpeakerMember of Board of Directors Children’s Aid Society of Simcoe-CountyCONTINUING EDUCATIONPersonal Income Tax Course Media TrainingPADI Certified Scuba DiverSmart Serve CertificateToronto Great Lakes Water Conference Georgian College Assertiveness Training for Business Food Safety Training Certificate Teaching Adults CourseSeminar - Economic Recovery Forum Seminar - Crash Course in Advertising Results Seminar - Attractions Marketplace Seminar - Super Host Workshop – Tourism - A Community Approach Workshop - Economic Recovery Think Tank Sheridan College Principles of Buying (PMA of Canada)Sheridan College Accounting (Intermediate)McMaster University Economics
