I am a Communications Master’s degree student who has an MA in Marketing Communications (ongoing) and four years of online content writing experience.

As a Staff Writer for The Guardian Nigeria, I am responsible for creating and editing written content as well as keeping up with social media activity. I’m an incredibly neat and detail-oriented person, and I’m able to handle a wide range of responsibilities simultaneously. Also, I have a brief knowledge of a few graphics design applications.

I’ve gained experience as a supervisor, and as a result, I’m capable of managing writers who are located around the world. My strongest assets are my abilities to express myself and write well. My former supervisors have complimented me on my content contributions, but also on my ability to keep colleagues on task. I would thoroughly enjoy the opportunity to leverage these digital communication skills in the online communications department.

I have no doubt you will find my portfolio of professional credentials to be first-rate. I look forward to meeting with you and thank you in advance for your consideration.

o Excellent interpersonal skills and ability to interact at all levels in the organisation.
o Ability to manage multiple projects and work under tight deadlines.
o Self-motivated with a zeal for continuous professional improvement.
o Results-focused, a self-starter, energetic and able to work with minimum supervision
o Business writing, journalistic and administrative skills
o Organisational and planning skills.
o Good knowledge of corporate communication/ public relations
o Excellent written and verbal communication skills

I can almost see myself in the job description. As I have 5 years of professional writing experience alongside my journalism skills, I’m very confident that I can generate content, research, and compile news stories for the Lagos Business School website as well as proofread and edit articles. Frequently, I have developed my communication abilities, which have prepared me for working on projects across several organisations hierarchical levels. I’m a self-starter, and I’m ready to join in from the get-go, so I am truly excited about this opportunity to get started.
