What I'm looking for

I seek a role combining marketing, events, and sales within a collaborative brewery or retail team where I can drive engagement, streamline operations, and grow brands.

I am a marketing, events, and sales executive with hands-on experience across brewery operations, retail coordination, and digital marketing. I have managed social media, WordPress sites, webshop updates, and press communications for multiple breweries, consistently improving engagement and operational flow.

In production and logistics roles I supported managers to meet production and sales goals, oversaw centrifuge operations, tank CIP procedures, and coordinated distribution using SAP and AccountsIQ. I also executed events, managed rotas, and handled sales data entry using IntelliBrand/WASP.

I bring a customer-focused, detail-oriented approach to roles that blend marketing, sales, and production. I value clear communication, reliable execution, and continuous improvement to drive growth for brewery and retail businesses.
