WHY HIRE ME ?

Hello! We don’t know each other yet, but I hope after reading this, you will know me well enough to want to let me get to know you too!

I am Tiphanie Le Gall, I am 30 years old and I have been working in a global com-munication agency in France since 2007.

Currently, my job consists of having a glo-bal vision of the communication world and building communication strategies for all communication needs: for blue chip customers, SMEs, start-ups and local authorities. I use the good communication tools for the good market and the good target.

After 9 years in my agency, I have edited well over 100 magazines (company maga-zines for B2B and B2C; internal news reports for employees; newspapers for local govern-ment and books for the general public...).Additionally, I have had the opportuni-ty to put in place more than 15 different magazine launches on various sub-jects (health, decoration, politics, HR, …).

I am able to advise my clients about the strategic and editorial position of the medium and the graphic design which corresponds to their targets and goals. I accompany them when considering the editorial policy, the organisation of the thumbnails, the research or realisation of iconographies, the writing or rewriting of copies and the cost opti-misation of printing. I organise all my projects to facilitate the graphic designer’s job, to save time, enhance precision and respect the deadlines.

EDITOR’S LETTER

2 // MAGAZINE EDITOR TIPHANIE LE GALL +33 610 941 296

As a meticulous person, my eyes are sharp to find all the French spelling mistakes and page settings errors.

Over the past 3 years, I have set up the the distri-bution channel and advertising sales strategy for an annual lifestyle city magazine for Strasbourg. For that, I have built a sales strategy, with the creation of a sales team and the achievement of a media kit to professionalise the business. The aim is to self finance the production and the prin-ting of this 132-page magazine with 30 000 copies. After having set up the website 3 years ago and the social media strategy 2 years ago, I now work on the development of a mobile application to conti-nue to increase the visibility and the market share of this magazine. I do love paper but I think that, in order to be successful, a magazine is now in need of a digital and mobile strategy too.

As a dynamic and motivated person, I always need new challenges in my career. After 3 different career developments in my agency and 10 years in Strasbourg, I plan to settle in London, ideally in October this year.

Your job offer corresponds exactly to what I am seeking

for my new professional adventureand my new life.

I’m really passionate about the publishing profession, the management of a team and a project, in addition to the human element. It will be a wonderful exercise for me to succeed in getting to know this English magazine: its values, its style and to be able to find the good balance to respect it and to adapt it to the French readership and market. .

Additionally, travelling with my job and continuing to network are two important elements for me.

I am currently in charge of the business development of my agency and am in re-gular contact with a variety of people in various business sectors. It is a source of personal fulfilment and motivation for me.

You will find further details of my career in the attached CV and the porfolio of my achievements.

Yours faithfully,

Tiphanie Le Gall

My familiy is from Brit-tany and they have lived in the South of France for 40 years. Moreover, I have worked for the French market in various lines of business for 10 years.

BECAUSE I have a strong desireto live in London and discover your customs and culture!

BECAUSE lifestyle magazines are my best source of inspiration to invent new creative campaigns and to always be up-to-date!

BECAUSE my global vision of com-munication can be an opportunity to share my innovative thinking and to constantly strive to be the market leader.

BECAUSE I’m a serious and loyal person, with a strong business ethic and optimistic approach to business.

BECAUSE I’m organised. I know how to lead both small and large projects and I know how to manage people in a team.

BECAUSE if I don’t match your job requirements with my 100+ magazines, I think I must need a career move!

WHY HIRE ME ?

Because!
