Inrix Media Narrative Report

QE1 –Possess a relevant qualification or equivalent experience

Since graduation from my Digital Media honours degree over 10 years ago, I’ve held posts within the field of media, marketing and communications, with a brief spell at the Highways Agency (now HE), including time as a BBC producer/broadcaster and manager at Inrix Media. At Inrix Media a large part of my work involved me liaising with the Police and Highways Agency to bring information from control rooms to the public via radio, web and mobile app.

Most recently I held the post of Marketing Co-ordinator for a chain of 17 restaurants, and designed a marketing planner for the brand, as well as local restaurant sites. This consisted of eCRM, web, social media, video, photography,

At Inrix Media we partnered with local road authorities, Police forces and Highways Agency (now HE) control rooms to provide a synergistic benefit to both. The level of trust that I built up meant that Police forces could trust me to speak to a Control Room Inspector without the need for supervision from a Press Officer.

EE2 - Experience of devising and implementing marketing campaigns

In my roles as Account Manager at Pam Lloyd PR and Marketing Co-ordinator at the Stable I have devised, implemented and also contributed to many marketing plans and campaigns. Most recently at The Stable I devised and planned a multi-media marketing/communications planner using Excel. In both of these roles I was confident costing and planning the use of the range of marketing channels as mentioned above.

EE3 - Excellent written and verbal communication skills

Whilst at the BBC, Celador and Inrix Media I found that I could translate technical Police, Highways Agency and road authority information into broadcast bulletins and scripts with ease. I did this in a style that was easy to understand by the public, and well regarded by Editors. This was reflected by radio station Managers/Editors requesting to have my voice and scripts on their radio station, and my work being popular with

Marketing unbranded vegetables is a particularly tough task, due to them not being particularly exciting, and therefore required strong creativity to gain PR coverage. However I managed to obtain coverage on BBC 1, Channel 4 and BBC radio to name but a few. I did this by knowing what the producers might find interesting about the vegetables, and presented the provenance story to them in a timely and interesting way. By timing my contact with them and giving the producers an interesting story which was linked to the seasons, I secured dream coverage in a tough situation. By taking a very ordinary subject like vegetables, and using my creativity I was able to gain them coverage on TV channels to reach millions of

    In the d-block production, ‘Inherit the Wind’ I served the role of publicist, along with this role I had the job of preparing flyers, making signs, and creating a playbill. I selected this role because I am very familiar with the use of all of the google apps and I thought it would be an exciting and challenging role. I envisioned the role to be lots of computer work, which it was and I also thought it would have to require lots of detail and attention to make sure I got everything right, as it was. I thought our blocks production was well performed as well as organised and put together.…

It reminded me the efforts I put in trying to make more information accessible to the public readers as a contributor to a Chinese technology blog.

    My interest in public relations was sparked in high school with the clubs and activities in which I was involved. Being the head of prom committee and an executive member of the student council, taught me how to plan and execute events. Serving as a student representative on the principal’s council required me to bring the issues of the public to light and find a way to resolve them. In addition, being both and editor and writer for the school newspaper and yearbook required me to always keep up to date on current events. The common thing that was important for all these activities was the ability to communicate with both my superiors and peers.…

    My experience in marketing started early in my career when I took control of the internet sales department, a relatively new concept in the retail automotive industry. A lot of this knowledge was gained through trial and error, as the industry was in the middle of a change at that point, and I was handling an uncharted territory by myself. The question approach in the sales process helped me uncover a lot of what it took to get a potential customer to move from looking at a website to walking into the dealership. This led me to take a lot of approaches that were uncommon at the time, such as adding a searchable inventory of our cars to the company website. In addition to the marketing of the individual vehicles via the internet, rather than…
