• Press Officer

  • Apr 2014 - May 2016

  As Fine Gael Press Officer I work as part of a team to provide communications support to the Fine Gael Parliamentary Party. Dealing with national and local media on a day-to-day basis is a key aspect of my job, I am involved in devising, planning and implementing strategic communication programmes and campaigns, and I brief members for interviews and media engagements. The press office of a political party is often a highly pressurised place to be, you need to have the ability to work on your own initiative and to think on your feet. Communication is the most important part of my job and the aspect I enjoy most; talking to people, expressing messages in a clear way and interacting with the media and other stakeholders.
