Lisa was a joy to work with.

Lisa is excellent at taking ownership of her work as well as working extremely effectively in a team environment. She would make a great asset to any company.

Production Controller

Apr 2003 - Aug 2016
I am Production Controller at Zinc Media. I have over thirteen years of experience working for a Production Department as a Production Controller. In conjunction with this role I have also undertaken extensive duties as an Office Coordinator. For the last thirteen years I have been employed by Zinc Media (formally known as Ten Alps Publishing and McMillan-Scott), an Ad Sales and Contract Publisher in Central London. On joining the company I worked in the design department as a Junior Designer/Page Layout Assistant, using Quark Express to set advertisements and classified advertising sections for various corporate in-house publications.After two years, due to restructuring, I transferred to the Production Department where my responsibilities now include liaising with internal departments and external clients, to ensure that publications are produced on time and to budget.I currently manage approximately 8 different titles and 6 chequebooks with various distribution frequencies, therefore I am familiar with the high level of pressure and coordination expected in the publishing process. Through this role I have also developed good organisational skills and the ability to work to tight deadlines, essential when more than one publication is going to press at the same time.Also I’m responsible for which I upload banners & MPU’s using OpenX & Google Double Click.In addition I also managed the company website (http://www.tenalpspublishing.com) which includes resizing images, scheduling user content key news.About a year ago I had some addition role which was Office Coordinator which includes attendance records, stationary ordering, booking couriers etc. I was in this role for about 3 years.
