About me
Highly creative and strategically minded, I am extremely ambitious and motivated to achieve great results. I want to build on the knowledge I gained from my BA (Hons) in Business Management (Marketing) and previous work experience, including stints in digital marketing, global advertising and marketing agencies.
Academically, I graduated with a 2:1 in BA (Hons) Business Management (Marketing) from the University of Westminster in July 2020. During my studies, I covered different areas of business, including global management, business analytics, finance, marketing and entrepreneurship, before focussing on business management related to marketing and digital marketing later in the degree where I learned how to use platforms such as Google Analytics, Twitter Analytics and Tableau as well as mastered the use of all Office programs (Excel particularly) and report writing.
While building this excellent academic foundation, I had the opportunities to undertake various internships in agencies specialising in PR, marketing and digital marketing.
· In 2018, I worked at BRUEL s.r.l., Milan Italy, where my main duties were assisting the marketing and sales manager. While there, I developed my organisational and time management skills as well as undertaking market research and reporting.
· My internship at Havas SO, London, fully convinced me that I want to work in the advertising industry. Working with the PR and marketing groups, I had the possibility to understand and learn a lot about how an advertising agency operates. In this fast-paced environment, I worked on various projects, doing preliminary research for marketing and PR campaigns, as well as helping with press releases and the organisation of PR events. Being able to work alongside the creative team to develop and release campaigns for our clients was inspirational.
· The late 2019, I took up an internship at SI-UK, London, where I worked directly with the international marketing manager. Here, I was able to develop my skills, developing a great understanding of the digital marketing field in a relatively short amount of time. I had much more responsibility than in previous positions. One of my duties was business development, doing research into new markets where we could sell our digital marketing packages and thereafter prospecting new contacts in order to send out proposals. I was also responsible for managing and uploading digital campaigns for our exciting clients and giving instructions to the design team on how to create them.
Since High School I have found passion in photography and advertising especially within the music industry.
I created small photography projects, and I am lately shooting and post-producing music videos for emerging artists regularly using the Adobe Suite, in particular, Photoshop, Premier and Illustrator.
I enjoy challenging myself and pushing myself to do everything I do to the best of my abilities and I am sure that knowledge, my working energy and ethics can bring a positive outcome.
It would be a pleasure to better present myself and further discuss the position.
Best Regards,
Panaiotis Vlahopulos.
