Staff Profile

I graduated as a mature student from Newcastle University in 2021 with a First Class Honours in Media & Communication and Sociology. Throughout my studies, I gained valuable University work experience with Jobs on Campus working in various departments including Student Services, the Asymptomatic Testing Team and the libraries.

My first PS role with the University after graduating was as one of a team of Receptionist/Facilities Assistants at the Frederick Douglass Centre and the Business School. I then progressed as PA to the Head of School and the School Manager, based in the School of Arts and Cultures - a temporary post for one year. I then moved to the HaSS Faculty Office as PA to the Deans of Education and as an Education Assistant - cover for a one-year colleague secondment.

Currently I am the Wellcome Trust Project Administrator with a range of duties including managing the project inbox and diary; and attending various meetings such as Project Leads and Core Team meetings where I take notes and actions to track and follow-up. I also assist with organising team development days which can be anything from managing the tech, booking event spaces and catering to producing documents for use on the day.

Previous to all the above, I have a solid history in a range of administration posts including with local authorities and housing associations (mainly in Scotland) before moving to Newcastle with my family in 2014.
