Sales Consultant & Lingerie Specialist
Ann SummersSales Consultant & Lingerie Specialist
Oct. 2012 - Apr. 2013London, United KingdomDuring my time at this company I became familiar with cashing up procedures, working out daily and weekly targets, up-selling products, replenishing stock, stock control and providing excellent customer service. This role also gave me a lot of experience in making customers feel comfortable in-store, and more importantly in their own bodies, which was fun and incredibly rewarding. I was also trained to become the store's lingerie specialist and bra-fitter, and still boast the record for guessing cup sizes among friends, although have since been advised against attempting this with strangers.
Fashion Assistant
WordWideFashion Assistant

I also liased with various, well-known brands to negotiate their supplying of the prizes to Christmas competitions within the issue in return for advertising space. My favourite parts of this job however, were interviewing and photographing various shoppers on location for the 'Style' pages of the magazine, and being able to sit next to the in-house Graphic Designer and Copywriter for the majority of my time in the office. These elements of my time at Wordwide solidified my passion for design, fashion and journalism, which would influence my later studio work at Central Saint Martins.
Promoter & Photographer
Stepping Stone Theatre ProductionsPromoter & Photographer
Jan. 2010 - Dec. 2012Lincoln, United KingdomI created flyers to promote this childrens’ theatre company, and was the photographer responsible for documenting rehearsals and performances. I also set up a fancy dress photoshoot area that I would run at childrens’ birthday parties put on by the company, which was a lot of fun. This all seems like a great idea until you’re faced with 20 sugar-high five year olds all demanding to be Snow White.
