Ciaran: South Africa: Nov 01, 2024

I began working while I was still studying to complete a Bachelor of Arts
degree in Communication Science. For the last 2 years of my studies I
worked as a remote, freelance copywriter. During this time, I
completed written article-based work for a variety of online
publications and websites. This work included gambling and online
casino written game reviews and recommendations, travel-based
articles and reviews, as well as other written work on a variety of
subjects.

After I completed my degree, I was able to intern and later take on a
permanent position at an advertising, media and marketing agency
based in Bryanston, Sandton. I now work here as a Digital Marketing
Assistant. This involves building content calendars, posting content,
managing and responding to messages or queries. I am experienced
with paid advertising on social media as well, having run numerous
client campaigns across Facebook, Google ads, Instagram, LinkedIn
and Twitter. I am also an experienced copywriter who frequently
creates content for a variety of companies and brands. This includes
post copy, website page copy, as well as scripted content for both
radio and TV.
Photography is another passion of mine. I am often present to help
cover brand events and/or activations. I am accustomed to shooting
and editing photos when required on a client-by-client basis. Looking
to the future, I am hoping to make a change. To get outside the office
and do something that really adds value to the future. I want to be a
teacher! I have now completed my Online TEFL 168
hour diploma. I am very excited to start my new career as a teacher!
