Diverse briefs include creating and editing engaging advertising copy across print and digital media for a variety of marketing campaigns, including subscription offers, Hotel Services Program, All Digital Access, Asia Breakfast Briefings, and T Magazine. In addition, I have created and edited bespoke web content for various NYT conferences, including the International Luxury Conference (2016, 2017, 2018), the Athens Democracy Forum (2016, 2017, 2018), Energy for Tomorrow (2016), Luxury Travel (2016), Art for Tomorrow (2017) and the Art Leaders Network (2018).

I have extensive experience reviewing content across various platforms and of adapting UK to US English and vice versa.

I deliver compelling content and provide editorial and proofing services for the Democracy & Culture Foundation's two flagship events: the Athens Democracy Forum and Art for Tomorrow, originally conceived under the auspices of the International Conferences division of The New York Times. I review and edit all speaker biographies for both event websites, as well as conference agendas, marketing and sponsorship assets and other written content - often with a very quick turnaround.

I created and developed compelling investment content for a number of the agency's key clients across a range of formats and platforms, specialising in refining fund commentaries and meticulously analysing performance attributions across all asset classes, including equities, fixed income, UK commercial property and commodities. I ensured the accuracy of market background summaries by fact-checking economic data, translating complex financial ideas and market trends into clear, engaging content for both retail and institutional investors. My experience extends to sense-checking complaint letter responses, crafting economic outlooks, contributing to responsible investment white papers, developing investment strategy presentations, and authoring thought leadership pieces on topics such as female entrepreneurship for a global investment bank, among other assignments.

In this lead client and project management role, I held responsibility for the commercial and documentation aspects of structured finance ratings, and subsequently corporate rating assignments in the UK and several other jurisdictions across EMEA. I managed diverse projects to ensure that commercial activities were conducted within the parameters of constantly evolving regulatory and internal compliance frameworks while spearheading process improvements across regions, generating new business in support of business goals and expertly managing client/intermediary relationships.I developed strong change management skills, frequently leading multiple projects concurrently, and going the extra mile to overcome resistance to new process proposals to achieve demonstrable client and intermediary satisfaction, and acted as a project management point person on all aspects of client documentation and interfacing with internal legal counsel. I also represented S&P at various external Debt Capital Markets events in Europe, alongside regularly engaging with intermediaries and promoting opportunities to enhance strategic and operational objectives. Key Achievements:I received several ‘Ace’ awards for exceptional client focus by delivering outstanding results for clients and intermediaries, and led numerous internal documentation projects, including the global implementation of EchoSign, by successfully influencing the adoption of cohesive strategies toward new process initiatives during a period of major change for the ratings industry.

I summarised key documents reflecting the latest academic/practitioner thinking on governance issues in international development, presenting complicated material in a clear and concise fashion to ensure user-friendliness, and drawing out policy implications for donors, governments, NGOs and other stakeholders.

I held accountability for detailed budget analysis and forecasting, monitoring of expenditure and income, financial reporting, grant management and the production of accurate management accounts. In addition, I provided administrative support to the London Team, including Health and Safety and general office management.
