Bio
Ansie Vicente
Kate was my 2IC at Panorama and could always be replied on to do what she said she would do, on time, on spec and within budget. She is a conscientious worker and thinks things through before making decisions. As a result, her planning and management of others are diligent and precise, yet compassionate and professional. She is an ace at admin and writes with care and precision without being a prima donna. I would recommend her without reserve for a position that requires a mature approach from a younger person to the challenges of the publishing industry.

Jan 2005 - Apr 2013
The job is varied and stimulating. I help the team manage deadlines, handle HR and many admin functions, edit four titles, assist the sub-editors when their workload becomes overwhelming, attend funtions, travel for stories, and write for a couple of the magazines.

Feb 2004 - Dec 2004
I started my career the way most journalists do - writing. About trucks and the trucking industry. I covered functions, interviewed key players in the industry and other interesting characters, and wrote articles on industry-related topics.
