Work Experience
During the summer of 2022, I gained paid work experience as the social media manager at the company Hypergallery in Henley-On-Thames. Hypergallery is a company that sells limited edition record vinyl prints. In this role, I have developed lots of new skills such as organisation, communication and digital marketing. Through this experience, I faced some challenges such as how to create a certain image presence on social media that the company wanted to put forward, as well as learning how to work with the cliental over social media.
