What Experience Do I Have?
Account Executive at Black & White Comms
As an Account Executive, I had daily contact with clients, updating them on coverage, discussing current actions in weekly meetings and sharing reports. I also took responsibility for the agendas and minutes in meetings and began to create relationships with a number of press - having attended press appointments myself at publications such as the Evening Standard. Working alongside the senior leadership team on brands such as Garnier, BaByliss, Cosmoss by Kate Moss and Foreo, I also aided in the planning, organising and setting up of events and product launches for both press and influencers. Each month I managed and populated the ROI reports (which included analysing competitors within the industry) and created client-specific and cross-agency e-blasts.

Internship at Hunter Grace London
During my time as an intern I managed hundreds of product send outs across ten brands, assisted the senior team on managing ROI reports, built relationships with influencers and monitored press and influencer coverage to share with the team. Working with brands such as Sol de Janeiro, Dr. Hauschka, Thayers and Hello Klean, I also spent time managing stock levels, responding to press and influencer requests promptly and co-managed the Hunter Grace social media account. I was also involved with events for the brands by setting up venues, greeting press and influencers, assisting with cars and tracking feedback.
August 2023 - March 2024
Internship at K&H Comms
I spent 3 months working as a showroom assistant for K&H Comms where I sent out items to stylists and press that were featured in magazines and worn by celebrities. I helped to set up press and customer facing events for brands such as Wolford, Mint Velvet, Nutmeg and Gym+Coffee. In addition, I became competent in using Fashion GPS, tracking sample movement and booking couriers to send out gifting to press and influencers.
April 2022 - July 2022
Visual Merchandising Work Placement at John Lewis
I spent time working in the Visual Merchandising department in John Lewis, Oxford Street where I helped to make the props used for the store windows, learnt about the process used to design and make the displays and changed the mannequins on the shop floor. This gave me valuable knowledge; teaching me about brand image, merchandising and creating a cohesive design and theme which runs on a national scale.
