Work history

HR Administrator

Glinwell Marketing
Hatfield, Hertfordshire
2026.02 - Current

As a HR Administrator for Glinwell, a large provider of produce to supermarkets across the country, my main responsibility is creating employment contracts for multiple sites, in multiple languages, to ensure proper onboarding practises are followed in an industry that employs seasonal workers from all over the world. I provide a high level of administrative care, filing everything properly and securely, creating databases for digital filing to ensure that files can be found easily when they are required. High attention to detail and strong organisation is required to protect the company and its employees.

Throughout the year. I coordinate with Health and Safety, Technical teams, Packhouse Managers and the Directors to make sure that everything is above board.

Script Reader

Raindance Film Festival
London
2025.09 - Current

As a script reader, my responsibility is to read a large quantity of scripts for Raindance Film Festival. I efficiently provide concise feedback on a number of factors such as dialogue, character, plot, and give the script an overall rating, with a suggestion on whether or not it should make it to the next round. I take a firm but fair approach with everything I read.

Production Assistant

Various
London
2022.10 - Current

Worked in a range of Production roles on Features, Scripted Television, Music Videos, and Shorts. Adapted to any situation, learned and provided assistance to keep cast and crew comfortable, and to keep us on schedule. Helped with Camera and lighting, Script supervision, and just about any part of production, always going above and beyond, taking on any challenge confidently and efficiently.

Production Operative

Glinwell PLC
Hatfield, Hertfordshire
2025.04 - 2026.01

As a Production Operative for Glinwell, I provided a committed, efficient and productive attitude to a large team that packs fresh and high quality produce to supermarkets across the country. Checking paperwork to make sure order numbers are correct and done on time, ensuring the product is a high standard, and communicating with a team of people from many countries with limited English speaking capabilities, this challenge helped me hone my ability to speak more directly and efficiently, whilst remaining polite and garnering a positive work environment. A physically demanding role that required dedication, focus, and drive, after impressing the company in this role, I was promoted to HR Administrator.

Creative Designer

BioSure Ltd.
Nazeing, Essex
2020.05 - 2021.07

Tasked with planning marketing campaigns for a medical testing device company. Carried out videography work, which I would later edit, using Adobe Suite, organise and publish for each social media platform.

Organisation and communication between clients and other departments of the company were essential in planning of events and campaigns, along with scriptwriting, reading and editing for voice-overs. Other administrative responsibilities were required.
