  Redbrick Paper

  Jun 2016 - Jul 2017

  Television Editor

  I am responsible for recruiting new team members, assigning projects to section writers, reviewing copy and section design and layout. This included public speaking at numerous welcome meetings of over 100 trying to persuade members to join my specific section. This element of the role has really improved both my presenting and public speaking skills. I am responsible for organising and holding weekly meetings with writers, delegating topics and encouraging people to write on their individual tastes to accommodate all aspects of the genre. Furthermore, I oversee and deliver content being published online regularly to a website which receives over 20,000 unique visitors every month and in our print publication which reaches 1,500 students fortnightly across campus. This role has seen me develop outstanding time management skills as I am balancing this role alongside being a social secretary and my degree. It has also given me the opportunity to learn new skills in Adobe Photoshop and Adobe InDesign. I regularly contribute my own content to the Redbrick paper.
