Liaising with advertising staff and clients to plan advertorial content for various features, such as education, fashion, weddings, and gardening among others.Managed a team of nine (three full-time journalists and six freelance writers) and one freelance photographer to produce advertorial and editorial products for the advertising department. Managed the flow of advertorial work through the department, as generated by the features sales team, Motortimes reps, Waikato Times reps and Hamilton Press reps. Editor of several publications, including House and Lifestyle magazine, Life etc magazine, Fashion magazine, and Farmer. For all of these products I generated editorial topics and content ideas and developed new content initiatives. Sub-edited client-supplied editorial for several publications, the largest of which was Continuing Education – a quarterly education tabloid of up to 56 pages. Sub-edited all the stories generated by the in-house team of journalists and the team of freelancers. Using Cyber Page, I laid out Education Update, all education features, Fieldays content in Farmer, rural lifestyle content in Farmer, and other occasional ROP advertorial features. Regular liaison with fellow advertising department supervisors (including features, Hamilton Press, Waikato Times, Motortimes, classifieds, ad services and production) and their sales staff. Regular liaison with in-house photographers and the freelance photographer, artists in production, and a vast array of clients. Drove the editorial content for other key editorial products, including Gallagher Group’s 70th Birthday tabloid, annual Fieldays publications, Waikato Master Builders’ annual House of the Year publication, and the Home Show magazine. Long-term editorial planning and strategising for the department’s flagship publication – House and Lifestyle – taking into account both editorial integrity and commercial opportunities. Under my editorship, House and Lifestyle grew from publishing every second month, to publishing monthly. It grew in pagination and was then published in gloss stock. I oversaw the publication and its masthead’s redesign.This was a temporary role covering all aspects of administration work, from managing reception to typing reports, taking minutes at meetings, preparing documents, and assisting with travel bookings.Originally hired as a temporary receptionist during a working holiday in Western Australia, I was offered a permanent position with the company. Typed up and prepared geotechnical reports for several large mining clients including Newmont, BHP Billiton, Rio Tinto, and Fortescue Metals Group. Liaised closely with the company’s large team of geotechnical engineers and scientists on reports. Booked travel and accommodation for management and staff. Managed staff training and training records and booked staff into courses, conferences and workshops where appropriate. Managed accounts receivable and was tasked with debt collection, ranging from minimal sums to multi-million dollar accounts. Any and all administration tasks generated by management and staff.My first role after completing my degree was as a journalist for City Weekend – a community newspaper published on a Friday with an entertainment bent. I was tasked with writing all the content for the paper, from previews of music gigs during the upcoming weekend to cafe reviews and everything in between. City Weekend was disestablished at the end of 2001 and its content was absorbed into its sister publication, Hamilton Press. My move to Hamilton Press enabled me to further develop my writing, particularly in the area of hard news. I was given the health and police rounds. I undertook training in sub-editing and layout under former Hamilton Press editor Sue Elliot.
