Sophie Smith

An ambitious and hard-working marketeer, who has excelled whilst studying at the University of Reading, on course to finish my Business and Management (Marketing) degree with a first. Both practical and theoretical work have developed me into a resilient person who thinks creatively, thriving in group projects and excelling during my year in industry placement. I am highly passionate about marketing, excelling at creative, content and event based projects, continually achieving positive feedback.

My goal is to operate in a fast-paced and stimulating environment, where there are constant challenges from which to learn. With an energetic and enthusiastic nature, I pride myself on natural communication abilities and being an approachable colleague. I strive to be the first to volunteer for new challenges and opportunities to gain new skills, being the only person in my college to volunteer as part of an anti-knife crime project which attracted almost 100,000 visitors, and completing a rage array of marketing based LinkedIn learning courses.

Reliable and dependable team player with excellent communication and organisational skills. Experienced in conducting comprehensive market research to identify key customer segments and target audiences. Creative marketer willing to think outside the box to secure impressive results.
