Various Schools

• Supply Teacher

  • Sep 2013 - Nov 2014

  I worked in a number of schools as a supply teacher. As a supply teacher you need to command respect and be adaptable as you will be covering lessons outside your subject area. I loved being able to help students with other subjects as they were always surprised that I knew anything about say French, when they knew I was a science specialist.

Frontline Publishing

• Sales and Marketing Executive

  • Sep 1996 - May 1997

  I was almost immediately put on a "Driving Sales" project, where the aim was to increase the sales of the magazines in Frontline's portfolio. We did this by giving retailers advice on which magazines to stock to get most sales and on different methods of display. This meant we had to make an initial good impression with the retailer and had to gain their trust.
