Volunteering Experience

Curzon Ashton, Media/Marketing Assistant and Graphic Designer, 2023-12-Present


 As a voluntary member of Curzon Ashton’s media team, I’m involved in a broad range of creative and promotional tasks to help grow the club’s audience and strengthen its brand presence. Working both on-site and remotely allowed for a flexible schedule, during which I produce graphics and video content to support match promotions, player signings, contract announcements, and teaser campaigns. These were created using Adobe Photoshop and Premiere Pro, helping me to develop a strong foundation in graphic design and video editing., My role also involved filming and editing post-match highlights and conducting interviews with players, coaching staff, and supporters all done via Premiere Pro. This has helped me build confidence in content creation, marketing and communication while contributing to a more engaging matchday experience for fans and many who follow our social media pages such as X, Instagram, Facebook and TikTok.
