Day in the life of a Communications Officer! As many of you might already know, my day job is in communications for a sustainability unit, what I've never revealed on this channel before is my actual job title and what exactly I do in a day! So follow me for a day in the life of a Communications Officer (similar to a Communications Manager or Specialist role) where I walk you through my entire day and all of the communications-related tasks I work on!

    I am currently a gym manager and looking to change careers. This video has opened my eyes into something that I had no idea about. I have so many transferable skills to do this role. I really enjoy doing different things day to day but also having a checklist of things that I can work through and tick off as I complete them. I love creating content, reviewing content, communicating to different departments and learning how each can work collaboratively. So anyway after that long random, almost application type comment, thank you for this video! I hope to see if maybe you have a video on how to become a communications officer or if you don't already maybe can you create one? :D New subscriber here :D

    @@JaniceDiaries Definitely! Personally, I took writing (creative writing, more specifically) classes outside of work at a local college for a reasonable price! Coursera, an online educational site also offers some courses by pretty prominent institutions for free--I've never used it but hear great things. There are plenty of other ways though and, if either your current or new organization is quite large they may even have their own classes. For me personally though, I found practicing was the best route to go down. Started writing for blogs (my own included) and kind of built a writing portfolio from there. Will you have to do more technical writing or are you looking to more generally?

    That was a hectic day! For someone who 'technically' works around 6 hours a day you clearly worked well into overtime. I hope your company appreciates you. Sounds like they need a bigger team? Sometimes small companies think one comms professional can easily do these tasks, but they don't realise all the extra time that goes into research, meetings, rethinks and general 'we don't know what we want until we see it' work. And on top of all that, you're creating your own vlogs and freelance and ghostwriting gigs? People who say younger generations don't know the value of hard work should take note. I came to your video because I have been a comms professional for a long time, but still love to learn from others about the way they work. I really appreciate the intrinsic breakdown of your tasks and to-do lists, couched in the everyday life stuff like making breakfast and dealing with discomfort. It adds some well-deserved humanity to the work of a writer, a job many people think is worth less than its true value, or easily replaced by AI tech. Thanks for this insight, comms/marketing people often try to portray an effortlessness to their clients. Your video adds some realness to this undervalued work.
