The manager position for the office we were and my colleagues were working at was empty and all the work related to that position had to be done by someone who was open to it.This position meant: doing all the work of the executive assistant of the director (writing emails, answering calls, creating and managing appointments) as well as managing the office (making sure everything worked properly, listening to the demands of my colleagues and passing them on to our director, supervising the work of my colleagues and paying all the salaries at the end of the month).

I coordinated the ongoing projects of the non-profit association. The 2-day conference at CaixaForum in Madrid in May 2016 was the main objective for my team and we were excited to be taking on the making-of such a big event.With the help of a Community Manager we updated the information on the Social Networks until the end of September 2016.
