My role within the marketing department was wide and varied, but I mainly focused on content creation to support our digital marketing strategy. I was responsible for researching and writing customer case studies, blog articles, website text, and social media posts.

I was regularly doing live crosses from the field into the morning and afternoon national news bulletins, as well as the evening news for Queensland.
