Relevant Experience

Oxfam |�2015-2016 |�Volunteer Bookseller / Shift Leader
I volunteered at Oxfam Books in Muswell Hill for a year. I had all the normal responsibilities of a bookseller but was also entrusted with the role of Shift Leader. This meant managing the other volunteers if the Shop Manager was not present, money count, opening the shop, and locking up.

Little Tiger Group |�2017 |�Intern
I spent time in both Marketing and Editorial during my time at Little Tiger. In Editorial, I did administrative work such as reading through submissions and responding via email and organising the filing system and library. I also helped to construct, paint, and decorate displays for the Young Adult Literary Conference, which I also attended and assisted at.
In Marketing, I wrote press releases, copy for Youth Libraries Group, tweets, website updates, design briefs, and constructed Excel spreadsheets.
The One Romance |�2017 |�Social Media Intern
As the sole intern at The One Romance, I would investigate (both online and in person) locations for luxury events. I did the social media for their Instagram, Twitter and Facebook and researched and wrote blogs.

TEDxUCLWomen |�2017 |�Communications Team Leader
I oversaw outreach, blogging, and social media for TEDxUCLWomen for their 2017 event. I wrote many of the blogs (mostly interviews with speakers) on the website and edited the rest. During this time, I became very comfortable with operating the website (Wordpress) and with pre-planning social media campaigns.
Liaising with other team leaders and communicating the ideas and progress of my own team was also a big part of the role. I particularly enjoyed working with the graphic designer on concepts for our posters, flyers, programmes, and zine. The event was a huge success and the talks are available to watch on TED�s YouTube channel.

Waterstones |�July 2018 - |�Senior Bookseller
At Waterstones, I am devoted to knowing as much as I can about new releases. I spend a lot of time recommending both classics and new books to customers. I enjoy especially working with authors at events and spreading awareness of books that I am passionate about that may have been forgotten or overlooked.
