Meet Rebecca, who talks about her studies and the responsibilities that come with creating content in the passive fire industry.
I studied English and Journalism at the University of Chester. After graduating in 2020, I worked at Tesco for a year at the start of the pandemic while applying to all writing jobs. Not without a challenge from the world we found ourselves in, I finally got my first graduate job, as a junior copywriter, in 2021. I spent the year working from home and gaining some experience. The opportunity to work for Quelfire presented itself at the start of 2022, where I now work in the marketing department, learning all about the passive fire industry.
My role involves creating content for our target audience within the passive fire industry. This could be blogs, articles, social media posts, videos, or press releases. I work closely with the technical and sales team to ensure our customers have all the up-to-date information about our products, tested details, and any other information they might need. My key responsibilities are developing my knowledge of SEO to improve site visibility and ensuring the content I’m creating is clear, accurate, and unambiguous – per the Code for Construction Product Information (CCPI).
I enjoy brainstorming sessions where ideas come together, allowing me to build on them and create create relevant content.
There is a real team spirit at Quelfire; it is a super friendly place to work. Everyone is passionate about firestopping and willing to share their expertise.
I come from a big family, so naturally, I enjoy spending time with them. But when I’m not, I’m either with my friends, reading a book, or out for a run. I also love trying different foods (always makes the best of conversations!) and travelling to new places; a recent trip involved hiring a car and exploring Tuscany, Italy. The key is always to have something to look forward to!
