I'm offering
Thank you for taking the time to read my profile!
I am Kate - I offer a range of administrative, writing and design services utilising skills that I gained over many years whilst providing Project Management and project support. Having held employed and self-employed roles supporting Community Development, Social Enterprise Start-Ups, Capital Project Management, Education, Training and Landscape Design, I have experience of working for a variety of individuals and client groups. As such I am flexible with insight into a wide range of business structures and work practices and enjoy the diversity.
I have a passion for the English Language, getting a kick out of changing writing styles to ensure relevance to targeted audiences. I relish researching new fields and am as comfortable writing technical reports as I am writing content for blogs and social media.
I am loyal, work methodically, delivering impeccable standards for communications, attention to detail for all tasks and a professional disposition while observing demanding deadlines.
I offer a warm welcome and look forward to the opportunity to work for you too!
