Sigrid Zeiner-Gundersen , London, United Kingdom

With my experiences as an employee, freelancer, and the professional weight I obtained through my business and economics degree and my degree in pop music performance, I believe I have a lot to offer. I have experience in the music industry as a creator and performer and as an office assistant and admin in different sectors. As an employee I will highlight my position as an Office Assistance/PA for entrepreneur Petter Olsen in Firmament AS; my tasks were mainly to aid the company’s chairman, handle his emails, prepare for meetings, correspond and communicate with the management and the company’s connections nationally and internationally. More recently, I have gained administrative experience in my role as the Front of House at London Auctions Ltd where I quickly became the person in charge of reception, customer service, registering offers and administering condition reports of objects at the auction house.

As a freelancer I have obtained leadership and admin experience within my own music and audiovisual projects where I as either the artist or producer was in charge of executing the product from idea to reality. I am used to working independently, in a team and I thrive under pressure. As a freelance singer, voice over artist and songwriter I am used to being flexible, communicatively adaptive, thorough and punctual to deliver to my clients.

I have lived in London, New York and Oslo since 2008, with 7 years in London. My years in Oslo was spent completing my business and economics degree at the Norwegian Business School BI where I specialised in entrepreneurism and arts management. In London I completed my degree in Pop Music Performance to a 1st Class Honors Degree at Tech Music School and in New York I did a semester in arts management and marketing at Gateway College through College of Telemark, Norway.

Former employers have given me feedback such as that I have a very positive attitude, am easy-going and a skillful co-worker. My collaborators of my own projects have given feedback such as that I am inspiring, effective, initiating, creative and hardworking.

I see myself as a resourceful person and I enjoy new challenges. I have a strong attention to details, have a detail-driven mindset, am a great communicator and find enjoyment in finding solutions and staying positive in demanding situations. I achieved an A in both math and statistics in my business degree and would claim I have a high level of numeracy. I think my commitment to my own projects and as a sole trader shows an ambitious, creative, structured and highly adaptable person. In collaboration with others I enjoy seeing results of what I do, and I have a strong wish to be a part of the team.
