- Professional Background
- I hope that this email finds you well. My name is Amanda Buckley (previously Cannie), I am a fully trained speaker and communication expert. Since university I have worked developing curriculum approved lesson plans to teach across the UK to students who need creative ways to progress through education. These communications are available for free download worldwide to teachers and educators.
I have, since graduating university, worked in the education sector, the Private sector and the third sector.
I have the experience of hundreds of speeches and presentations, delivered in person and on television (UK Sunday Politics), and communication experience working internally in a CSR and internal comms role.
I have worked directly in special education schools and as a SEN facilitator, as well as in PRU’s and with young people with complex learning needs, with disabilities both physical and behavioural. I have also worked with advanced students, creating gifted programmes for students who need challenging ways to complete extra studies. I have worked with politicians, business executives and the Mayor of London developing outreach strategies and internal/external communications.
I have predominantly worked designing/delivering lessons for students in the UK aimed at finding individual and creative ways to learn. I have worked directly with said charity as a facilitator and trainer on creative learning involving Art, Literature and Music. As well as leading the charities UK social media platform and communication lead for all UK based volunteering opportunities.
I am incredibly passionate about written word and communications; I have worked developing communications for young children to adults. I have experience writing funding pitches and comms which means I have an incredible persuasive way of writing. I am able to write to people at all levels, I am engaging and self-motivated; able to add personality and strong corporate vision to internal and external communications. As well as this I have excellent event panning communication experience; persuasive writing techniques through funding applications and event/ conference planning.
I have a degree in American history and literature with a minor in photography, where my passion for politics, journalism, creative writing and play writing really got started.
I am, in the New Year, moving to Dubai to live with my husband and am looking for a role where I can work developing my communication experience into a project managed role, where I can be at the start of a project, and plan from the start, the delivery of an entire assignment, managing SMART techniques and hitting major deliverables; while tracking progress.
Using my experience in schools and with a CELTA that I am currently studying for I want to develop a role that allows communications to be engaging and memorable. I have worked supporting and creating content for both charitable blogs/social media pages; as well as currently creating content for CSR projects and internal communications.
I am a confident, passionate and artistic individual; who enjoys being around and learning from people; as a part of my previous role, I spent a summer in Ghana with a group of teenagers tutoring them on cultural identity and history. As part of this role, I worked developing lesson plans and communications from an international charity point of view. I have worked delivering presentations across three continents, and to over 50,000 people.
I am hard working and dedicated to collaboration, and building lasting and genuine relationships with people I work with.

- CSR Interest & Background
- I have for the past four years worked within organisations, building social responsibility.
I worked for Team London, supported by the Mayor of London developing and executing communications and in class lessons about the importance of social responsibility by the individual.
It was a programme designed to get every school in London volunteering after the 2012 Olympic games.
After this, I worked with a entrepreneurial charity, where my role was to work directly with corporate volunteers who could offer business advice to people who needed in their London community.
In my most current role, I have build up charitable and volunteer space at Travelex that link up to our core competencies and values. I am looking to transition this experience to work within a CSR department within the UAE.
