After eight years as Product Manager, International Marketing, I was appointed Operational Coordinator of the same division in early 2015.
As part of the strategy set by V33 Group, I coordinate the proposal, creation, implementation and verification of marketing actions that relate to the development of our brands and product lines internationally. This ensures consistency within our international business for our subsidiaries and distributors.
I like this job for its international perspective, which is very informative and enriching on an everyday basis.
