Marketing Coordinator for a small Australian manufacturing company with multiple subsidiaries with their own distinct brands and personalities. As a marketing coordinator, I worked with the sales team to reach out to our clients using face-to-face methods such as product showcases, exhibitions and trade night attendance. The submission of award nominations for the companies' products was also my responsibility; and won the company two awards. I also negotiated advertising in trade magazines. With regard to graphic design, the role involved the design of product brochures, merchandise, exhibition stands, trade night displays and signage. A large project included the onboarding of a new subsidiary, and refreshing their branding to align with the group and bring cohesion to an outdated design.

I was a team assistant for 25 people in the investment consulting and manager research teams. My role focused on data management and upkeep; diary management and meeting arrangements; formatting, including brand consistency in the layout and proofreading of proposals, letters, slide decks, newsletters and research publications; general IT help; managing expenses; and event organisation including Ideas Exchange, networking events and roundtables. I regularly assisted other teams in the office with design work, particularly the marketing team. I am experienced in the creation of icons and infographics, invitations, ecards, brochures, large glossy documents and other collateral using the Adobe Suite. This work has made me extremely familiar with working within the Towers Watson branding, including illustration and photography style, layout and colour palette selection. I worked closely with marketing and the printing company to create all printed collateral for our September 2013 Ideas Exchange conference, which received unanimous positive feedback. The work for this conference provided the base for the following year's printed collateral. I was an active member of the Sydney office social committee. I also played in Towers Watson's mixed futsal team in 2014, and participated annually in Towers Watson's volunteering program.
