    • Manager
      • Sep 2016 - Apr 2019

      A role that touched on many areas of my past experience, from customer service through to negotiation, marketing, promotion, sales and much more. Taking care of many different areas I was primarily responsible for the total customer experience - handling both incoming enquiries as well as proactively reaching out to schools, groups and sports teams. A part of my duties were dispute resolution but what I am more enthusiastic to talk about is the outreach and social media aspects. Under my direct management the Christchurch branch won "Best Social Media Marketing" across the Pegasus network. While at Pegasus I also saw the FY2019 revenues grow by almost 20% in comparison to the FY2018 revenues. Show less

      • Jan 2010 - Mar 2013

      This was a dual business development and account servicing role. I managed the Facebook clients for In2 Marketing – which included the Intel Singapore Facebook page as well as reporting on Facebook performance for 9 regional countries. The reporting used a combination of Facebook measuring tools as well as third party trend analytics (Socialbakers) to compare and contrast different countries, compute ROI and develop strategy. We were also responsible for suggesting strategy and promotions for an annual Facebook Calendar for Intel within the region. In addition – I worked with a development team to suggest and implement dealer support programmes for Intel resellers. On an ad-hoc basis we pitched for campaigns with new clients and helped to manage the strategy. This included items such as an online merchandise ordering system and social media contests for Dell.
