Available Talent

G. S. | Paladin Chicago Candidate
Marketing/Marcom Manager with Corporate, Not-for-profit and Agency Experience

Available For:
All types of positions.

Ideal Position:
I would be most happy in a position that allows me to use my current skills but also to learn new skills and grow as a marketing professional.  I enjoy multi-tasking and a position with many different facets and duties would be most rewarding.

My ideal environment would be one of mutual respect where values are applied in day-to-day business.  I can work very independently, but good leadership is a must.  It is also very important that marketing plans are developed, maintained and shared so that everyone is working toward a common goal.

Past Experience:
I am a seasoned, high-energy marketing professional with strong analytical, interpersonal and communication skills.  Strengths and experience lie in Market Research, Product and Brand Management as well as background in Promotions, Packaging, Public Relations and Event Management.

I am very much a people-person.  I love meeting new people and networking with client service teams to understand market dynamics and translate client needs into solutions.  I learn very quickly and am an expert at managing cross-functional teams as well as outside agencies.

Currently:
Among other products, I managed a $6MM innovative store-level weekly data business at a premier market research firm in the Chicago area.  This particular product is innovative and on the cutting edge.  It was my responsibility to improve quality, assist in sell-in, as well as to train clients and provide client service.
