I live in Cape Town and have been working with a very small PR and digital marketing agency that serves big clients. Here, I have refined the skills required for being a jack of all trades - blog writing, press releases, social media, web development, email campaigns/newsletters, influencer strategies and other marketing campaigns. Before that, I worked at a publishing house and was involved in a digital publishing start-up where I kick-started a South African branch of a British digital publishing company, diving head first into teaching myself basic coding and styling.
I have been working in agencies and have start-up experience but "want to break out of the rat-race lifestyle". I also have experience working remotely - most recently from Portugal last year and Mauritius earlier this year - but am ready to leave the corporate office space behind - officially.
I have an incredible amount of discipline, am extremely deadline orientated, and pride myself in having the balance between creativity and structure (as you can see, I also enjoy superlative adjectives for effect).
If you want to find out a little bit more about me, you can have a look at my YouTube channel (Ollie and the Captain).
