Description
Production Coordinator/Secretary/Assistant having recently completed Production Coordinator Boot Camp with All Spring Media. I’m a versatile and highly motivated individual transitioning into the film and television industry after a successful 26 year career in the Royal Air Force. My background spans engineering, media and communications, project management, and people leadership. I’ve worked as a Media and Communications Officer, overseeing campaigns for International Women’s Day and LGBTQ+ History Month, coordinating press and social media outputs, and managing large-scale public events.
Alongside my RAF career, I’ve worked as a Supporting Artiste in over 25 film and TV productions, including Skyfall, Sherlock, and Eddie the Eagle (speaking role), giving me first-hand experience on set and deepening my passion for storytelling and production.
Currently studying part-time for a Master’s in Media and Communication at the University of Portsmouth, I’m developing skills in screenwriting, narrative theory, and visual media. I’m interested in all aspects of production and eager to gain experience in roles such as runner, production assistant, or office support.
I bring strong problem-solving abilities, exceptional organisation, and a calm, team-oriented approach—shaped by years of high-pressure work environments. I’m also skilled in risk assessment, logistics, diversity and inclusion, and strategic communication.
Based in Bucks with my own transport, I’m flexible, mobile, and available at short notice. I’m enthusiastic about starting at the ground level, learning from professionals, and contributing meaningfully to creative projects.
