About candidate

About you
I am a sound designer and coordinator from Bournemouth England.

My experience spreads from professional studio work with some infamous names to professional media work with companies such as Aardman and universal music.

I am an award winning sound designer and music producer. One of my most recent roles was as the sound designer for a award winning horror film, for which sound design won multiple awards.
What are you looking for in a new role?
I'm looking for variety and challenge. And I'm also looking for constant work. I love detail while thriving in a fast paced environment. A job that allows me to be creative while also being a perfectionist.
What you are interested in working with us?
A company where I can be part of larger projects sounds amazing. I want to give 150% to my job, and see how that can impact and help other departments.

Also the opportunity to help towards delivering a great experience for your clients is something that will keep me driven and determined to create amazing content.
What has been most challenging experience in a past role?
Working in the TV industry taught me how to manage tasks successfully. Not only that but I learnt invaluable skills with communication to people, departments and clients to successfully deliver and adhere to strict schedules.

My Name is Liam O'Grady, a Sound Designer and Coordinator from Bournemouth. I am a very organised individual, with great communication and organisational skills.

 

I have worked three years as a full time Coordinator for Channel 5 and Paramount TV shows. This Job was all about initiative and ability to work independently, while possessing fantastic communication skills to manage teams and their members throughout the project.

 

My experience as a Coordinator saw me manage numerous departments in the pipeline so allowed me to develop a wide range of skills with the ability to adapt and multitask. My experience ranges from transcription, document creation, formatting press releases to managing teams of employees to make sure the company is sticking to our schedule. Furthermore I started as a Production assistant years ago, which pushed my continued career in media to be specifically around production and all the admin/scheduling attached to these roles, which I believe gives me a thorough spread in skills and experience.

 

My main department was also the Audio department where I regularly liaised with clients such as Universal music and MNRK. My work in this area included client relations, booking and planning and importantly the legal delivery of recorded audio and music. Therefore attention to detail has always been a key responsibility for me.

 

In regards to the roles I am looking for, I am searching for part time and remote work. I worked this way through most of my professional career, and am extremely confident that even working from home, I would be a fantastic employee to have.

 

Throughout my media career I have trained towards a leading role. Attention to detail has been extremely important, while managing financing, invoices, payroll, holidays, team members and so on. I am also extremely competent in the use of Microsoft 365 products. While working with Channel 5 and Aardman as a Coordinator, It was also one of my roles to adhere to our clients values both ethically and environmentally. This involved working with companies such as Bafta and Albert to complete applications and communicate our progress.

 

I pride myself on communication, professionalism and a great attitude/work ethic. The chance to work as part of a determined team is exactly what I'm looking for professionally.

 

Thank you for taking time to read my cover letter!
