M. K. | Paladin Chicago Candidate
Marketing Communications & Media
Available For:
All types of positions.
Ideal Position:
I am hoping to find a position within an established organization that will allow me to utilize both my writing background, as well as my strategic marketing experience. I would like to bring a fresh perspective to the marketing communications team of either a traditional or non-traditional not-for-profit organization as an in-house specialist.
Ideal Environment:
I am looking for a highly creative and driven work environment, with an overall laid back, friendly feel to it that fosters teamwork. I tend to prefer smaller office settings, but have experience working for both very large and very small organizations. I have been a resident of this city my entire life, and would like to continue my career here.
Past Experience:
I have a breadth of experience in project management, building effective marketing strategies, as well as creative editorial development. I have over 5 years of advertising agency experience, including 2 years in a supervisory role, in addition to my background in the Public Relations and publishing realms. I always produce results for my clients.
Currently:
Most recently, I worked on a freelance project for an agency in which I provided consulting services for developing brand-focused media plans and strategic tactics to reach the client's intended audience. I maintained the buying/planning processes for 4 regional retail divisions, and helped each to successfully increase awareness and revenue.
Additional:
Whether working with a vendor, supervising a staff or talking to a client, I have always found that developing and maintaining solid working relationships is one my greatest strengths. I like to approach all situations with a foundation of respect and a friendly demeanor; two important attributes that have afforded me success in my career thus far.
