Prior to this, I studied BA English Literature and History at the University of Leeds. As my studies have cemented, communication is really important! My interest in communicating ideas in an effective, informative way has been fundamental to my pursuit of a career in marketing. During my Masters course, I&nbsp; enjoyed creating and executing campaign ideas and conducting market research in response to a live client brief. Alongside the need for data-driven ideas, I love the creative side of campaign planning and content creation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having enjoyed working with a real client both during my degree and in my spare time when managing an ironmongery company\u2019s social media, I knew I wanted to secure a marketing internship with an organisation that I&#8217;m passionate about. I\u2019m sure that the wider purpose of a Third Sector organisation like TeamKinetic will be really motivating and rewarding for me.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Involvement with Volunteering<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/8e1778ca-44df-4b43-bebe-2ad908ce0386-887x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12694\" width=\"278\" height=\"320\" srcset=\"https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/8e1778ca-44df-4b43-bebe-2ad908ce0386-887x1024.jpg 887w, https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/8e1778ca-44df-4b43-bebe-2ad908ce0386-260x300.jpg 260w, https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/8e1778ca-44df-4b43-bebe-2ad908ce0386-768x886.jpg 768w, https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/8e1778ca-44df-4b43-bebe-2ad908ce0386-900x1039.jpg 900w, https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/8e1778ca-44df-4b43-bebe-2ad908ce0386.jpg 1038w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 278px) 100vw, 278px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>I have been involved with volunteering in a couple of different ways over the years; most notably with Douglas Macmillan and The Trussell Trust. I was initially drawn to volunteering in a Douglas Macmillan charity shop due to a family connection to the hospice, yet soon realised the role of Douglas Macmillan within the wider community. Originally volunteering during my Duke of Edinburgh Award, this experience opened my eyes to the power of volunteering for customers, the organisation, and volunteers themselves. Working alongside some lovely elderly volunteers was a highlight and exemplified how volunteering really has no age! More recently, I volunteered with the Trussell Trust, collecting for a Manchester Food Bank. Once again it was humbling to witness people\u2019s generosity, especially during the cost of living crisis.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Given these experiences, I was drawn to TeamKinetic due to their <a href=\"https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/pricing\">volunteer-centric approach<\/a>. Making it easier for volunteers to view and access opportunities is something that I\u2019m really happy to be a part of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Free Time<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I love getting stuck into a good book, admittedly the more trashy kind since finishing my English Literature degree! I find painting and embroidery really relaxing when I have the time. Since moving to Manchester I\u2019m also taking the opportunity to eat my way around all the independent cafes and restaurants!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Looking Ahead<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I am looking forward to developing within a supportive company that values not only their team, but the communities and organisations that they are involved with. Over the next year, I hope to expand upon my existing skills and develop new areas of interest with the help and encouragement of TeamKinetic. I am excited to be a part of <a href=\"https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/about-teamkinetic\">the team <\/a>and for all that this internship may bring!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Siena Elsby-Smith<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>siena@teamkinetic.co.uk<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ensure you follow us on our social media pages to receive regular updates about the voluntary sector and learn more about the TeamKinetic system.
