I have strong communication skills as a result of working in various diverse environments over 6 years. My experience in both customer-facing and academic settings means I can adapt quickly to new work environments. I am a naturally amiable person and therefore find that I excel in high-pressure environments, where effective interaction and communication are a priority. Similarly, as a result of consistently working in front-of-house roles, I am confident in my ability to manage challenging situations whilst still maintaining professionalism.
I have recently graduated with a degree in Fashion Design and Marketing from Northumbria University and am looking to find a job that will offer an opportunity to utilise and develop my skills within the social media industry. My experience in degree-related placements involving both product design and trend research has taught me the importance of the relationship between having a good understanding of a product and presenting it to a customer through various platforms. My studies and placements highlighted my passion for the fashion and marketing industry, keeping up with current and emerging trends. During my university studies, I developed my brand and marketed it to align with the needs and desires of my target consumers. To gather valuable market insights, I utilised various marketing resources, including WGSN for trend forecasting, and social media to identify emerging trends, and conducted face-to-face interviews with my target audience to better understand their perspectives. Consequently, I am eager to apply my experience within this social media manager position at your company.
