I'm offering
I am a committed and adaptable individual with a passion for sports writing, analysis, and statistics, who has obtained a first-class degree in Sports Journalism at Leeds Trinity University. Through my work experience with TeamTalk and various regional newspapers, alongside running a weekly Championship podcast show with my peers, I have developed a strong working knowledge of how a newsroom is ran, and what it takes to work in a fast paced, high energy environment. I am now looking for a full-time job to further my existing skill set and sporting knowledge, that can also provide me with new and exciting challenges.
