As a student at EDHEC Business School in Lille, France, I will be graduated in March 2007 with a Master’s degree with a major in Marketing & Communications.
I have worked on the branding and packaging of international FMCG companies within one of the best French Design & Branding agencies. Some of my responsibilities involved writing strategic recommendations on companies’ brand identities and positioning. I have also managed design packaging projects for new product concepts. Being thorough and efficient has become a second nature to me.
My experience as Assistant brand manager for the Glenrothes single Malt Scotch whisky has definitely been a landmark in my young marketing career. Being proactive, I have led PR projects for the UK and upgraded POS & communications tools for on and off-trade activities with an international scope.
As a result, the year I have spent working in Marketing at CB’a and The Glenrothes has convinced me that I have the drive, the skills and above all the passion to continue this career path.
I intend to build my Marketing career in London and develop my managerial competencies in a multicultural environment.
