I have recently been made redundant from my role as Senior Visitor Experience Officer, working for The National Trust. I gained a wide variety of skills in this role as I was based at a small property where I oversaw many different departments. This has equipped me with experience of sales techniques (both for membership and retail), people management skills (both of staff and volunteers), an awareness of health and safety through my role as duty manager, and a portfolio of creative work featuring house displays, interpretation and children's trails. In these uncertain times, I am looking for opportunities in any of the areas listed above, as well as writing, proofreading and research - of which I have previous experience.

I'm a globetrotter at heart, but also a skilled, professional marketer, with a 1st class honors degree in International Tourism Management. My degree helped me to realise that marketing was the industry for me. Over my four years at university I studied three marketing modules, creating effective and engaging digital marketing and destination marketing strategies. They all equipped me with fantastic knowledge and an abundance of skill sets. In my final year, I produced a 6000-word Destination Marketing Strategy report on the city of Miami. I worked exceptionally hard on this and I was thrilled when I received the highest grade on the module.  During my placement year, I worked at Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council as a Communications and Marketing Assistant. Throughout my time at BMBC I supported officers and managers with the delivery of marketing campaigns, email marketing, and producing high-quality content for traditional and digital platforms. I also had the chance to run my own campaigns and produce weekly news articles. I also assisted in the planning of events such as the Tour de Yorkshire. For as long as I can remember I have been hooked on the idea of travel. I love exploring cities, laying on beaches, learning about cultures, and trying new cuisines. I made it my mission to visit 22 countries before I was 22 and did exactly that! 

I strive to push myself in a wide variety of activities which have allowed me to acquire many varied skills. I have gained a vast amount of experience working as a recruitment coordinator for a company that hired a large amount of seasonal staff. This required me to create new ways of promoting job vacancies (for example brand ambassadors and social media advertising) and of keeping their talent pool engaged and interested in various up and coming opportunities. I also aided in creating and maintaining their Applicant Tracking System (ATS). I understand the need to fulfil deadlines and also the need to keep adapting and developing materials so that the client receives the best end result. In my role as Activities Manager I gained a large amount of experience in how to manage clients and stakeholders’ expectations and deliver their desired outcomes. Within this role I also worked within a budget, booking attractions and selling clients extras to further enjoy their time with us. I have also been a residential musician in venues throughout the north, allowing me to gain experience in performing and hosting events. This would require me to promote my events on social media and through other forms of marketing, such as flying and busking. I would describe myself as energetic, passionate and driven, and would love the opportunity to show this within your organisation.

I am an extremely motivated, personable, and proactive individual, having built up a strong portfolio of varied skills, which allow me to work effectively, efficiently, and collaboratively in a multitude of settings. Having graduated from the University of Edinburgh in July 2019, I am currently seeking employment in a role in which I can advance humanitarian, environmental, and feminist causes, while developing my professional skills. I am excited by a wide range of roles, including charitable advancement, editing and content creation (magazine/literary), and roles in which I can use my languages (French and Spanish). I aim to have a high level of responsibility and am interested in global education on topics such as sustainability.

Dear Sir/Madam, I would like to apply for the role of Leisure Marketing Executive, currently being advertised on your website. I have just graduated in BSc (Hons) Marketing at the University of York, with a First-Class Honours (with Distinction) degree classification. During study, I have developed an in-depth understanding of marketing practices and principles, including performing competitor analysis, researching and producing reports on target markets. During 2017, I completed a summer internship with Art and Photography magazine, Aesthetica . As part of my role, I was responsible for developing creative content, writing copy for the magazine and online blogs, and managed the Italian client database, such as museums and galleries across Italy. My ability to speak Italian fluently was a real advantage during this process. Although my mother-tongue is Italian, I am also fluent in English and I can speak basic Spanish. I had the ability to build professional relationships and work collaboratively across organisations. As someone who is extremely determined and hard-working, I successfully handled multiple projects within Aesthetica and additionally worked part-time within two hospitality roles. In doing this, I developed excellent time-management and organisational skills, with the ability to prioritise tasks effectively and maintain a high quality of work. In addition to this, I have recently been awarded The York Management School Award for Highest Achieving Second and Final Year BSc Marketing student. I am extremely proud of this award and feel that it is testament to my commitment to Marketing. Thank you for taking the time to consider this application and I look forward to hearing from you in the near future. Yours faithfully,   Camilla Lanata  

I have recently come to the end of my internship working for the Liberal Democrats. The communications aspects of the job were what I found most interesting. I want to couple the skills I learned in that role with work in the heritage sector, an area I have a strong interest in from my love of History. I would love the opportunity to work in York's vibrant tourist industry, built on the city's rich and varied past.  Below is a summary of the skills I developed while completing my degree: Essay work ensured that I can write informative, analytical and engaging text to a high standard. Proof reading this work refined my eye for detail. I demonstrated in 24- and 48-hour open exams that I can be highly productive and remain calm and focused under intense pressure in limited time constraints. I was excellent at organising time and managing work load in preparation for seminars, essays and exams. This planning allowed me to work effectively on several projects simultaneously. Throughout my degree, and particularly while completing my dissertation, I learnt how to research a variety of subjects effectively and quickly. Working in groups to produce written pieces and presentations furthered my ability to plan, communicate, and operate as part of a strong team.

I pride myself on both my organisational skills and unrelenting self-motivation. I believe my combined academic credentials and work experience are evidence of this. I have a strong skill set, developed through years of industry experience and I thoroughly enjoy both the challenge and excitement of developing new skills and learning new traits. I am a confident, punctual and approachable professional, and believe I would be a great asset to any team.
