What does a day in the life of your role look like?
A day in the life of a digital marketer is fast-paced, dynamic, and ever-changing. As technology and consumer behaviour evolve, so too must the strategies and tactics we employ.
A typical day for me includes reviewing analytics to gain insights into the performance of ongoing marketing campaigns. This helps to identify any issues that need to be addressed, as well as opportunities for optimization and improvement.
In addition, I spend time planning and implementing digital campaigns. This involves determining the most effective channels for reaching the target audience and allocating budget for paid media.
I spend time catching up with the rest of the marketing team. This allows me to get an overview of what everyone is working on. This ensures that all our work is aligned.

Tell us something fun about you
I love to travel. Seeing new places and experiencing new things is always number one on my to-do list. I moved to the west of Ireland a couple of years ago. I try to get home to Dublin as often. I can then spend time with family and friends.
