Work history
Marketing Assistant
- Stoke-on-Trent, United KingdomInternship
At MEB Total, a mechanical and electrical building services company, I also developed a social media strategy to help boost sales and recognition for the business. I believe that the skills I have learned whilst at the company will allow me to adjust to the role effectively as it has taught me to keep to deadlines. It has also taught me to use my own initiative and given me practical knowledge of how to use social media as a marketing tool and expanded on my knowledge of how to make promotional material.
