I'm offering
I have been whilst helping run my husband's photography business for a number of years alongside various marketing and administration positions. My husband took the decision to cease trading as a wedding photographer at the end of the 2018 wedding season to enable us to start a new adventure. We spent last winter travelling and worked as Campsite Wardens during the summer. I am currently looking for a remote position with flexible or part time hours. I am commercially aware and have almost 3 decades experience of various administration, secretarial and marketing positions. I have good time management skills enabling me to effectively manage multiple projects. I can efficiently manage internal and external projects whether the challenge is from a client service, logistics or IT perspective. I have experience of working in both stand alone and team positions. I am friendly, reliable, outgoing person who is adaptable, willing to learn new skills and enjoy a challenge.
