SkillsCV (Curriculum Vitae) / Résumé
I am a dynamic individual with a passion for communicating. I have experience as an executive assistant, team leader and project manager at national, regional and local levels in the UK. I have worked for a national environmental body, in local government and in the voluntary and education sectors. My work has given me a broad view of PR and marketing for environmental and sustainable development issues and programme, project and change management experience. It has also enabled me to develop the communication skills required to engage with a range of stakeholders including members of the public, politicians and senior government officials.
