I am very interested in improving education and have worked in education comms since I left university. The charity sector appeals because my job helps to improve the quality of education in England without making any money from it.

Language and communication skills - particularly linguistics for compiling the company style-guide and editing content.

I worked for a teacher training company developing day courses and conferences for teachers for 2.5 years, then left to go travelling and complete an MA.

I would like to be a director in the education sector.

Don't be put off by the word marketing or think you have to have a degree in marketing. It allows you to communicate your creative ideas to an audience, and if you do it in the charity sector it allows you to build advertising campaigns that actually make a difference to people's lives.
