I am great at communication.
I have lots of experience of copywriting - dull though it is, it's probably the most fun I get out of work. A lot of my job is tedious admin and I am the last port of call for complaints as I am so utterly charming. My job is managing an online and catalogue retail operation so I can do and have done lots of different things from print management to people management - the problem is that it's dull as piss and I hate it.

Sounds like a decent range, leasving more avenues than you might imagine open to you
It is always worth remembering that when a job spec asks for "5 key skills" they'll often settle for less if you can be trained in the others and bring other qualities, such as charm.

I'm overskilled and overqualified it would seem.
Even for jobs that are carbon copies of roles I've already fucking carried out for several years. I feel plan B may come into operation if I don't get this job on Friday.

I fear your part bof the country has suffered more in the last few years with job cuts
If you are over qualified, then aim high, CEO DG.

It has indeed.
Nah, don't fancy that to be honest. Also I've had management responsibility for staff in the past and I really didn't enjoy it.

Nah, self employment working from home.
the only thing putting me off at the moment is space; the flat would need a major rethink in order to give me sufficient room to do what I have planned.

Nothing that ambitious.
Besides there's already a company out there licensed to make then so I've kind of missed that boat a bit...

My friend works for M&S copywriting, I can ask her if there's any jobs going.
What salary are you expecting?
