  The SMMT is the UK trade association for the automotive industry. We specialise in a number of areas from lobbying government, to legislative and regulatory support, to the collection of national vehicle registration data. My role is to support the technology agenda of the industry as a whole and to represent its views and priorities with respect to other key stakeholder organisations and industries. This principally involves low carbon technology with an additional layer of focus on electric vehicles and their development as a market. This involves working with a number of different organisations from the Automotive Council to the Office of Low Emission Vehicles in order to progress this agenda.

• Co-ordinator

  • Jul 2010 - Sep 2011

  Co-ordinator for a small start up company based in London. I was responsible for the day to day operations management of the company and was heavily involved in all aspects of what was a small retail business from product development all the way through to sales. I personally oversaw several significant changes, from the way the company kept sales accounts, to bringing in new business from overseas. I also launched media campaigns for new business, helped develop the website, managed the company's social media profiles and managing a small sales and support team.
