Sophie Huard

Graduated from the ESCEM with a double diploma in European Management and Marketing, I worked in different fields in order to become an efficient Marketer.
My last job experience was in London as a Marketing Manager for City Cruises (3y). My tasks were very wide, from assisting the Marketing Director, to establish the financial report in order to create new marketing Strategies. I also developed new markets (Russian market, French Market), designed ads to attract domestic and foreign markets,
was in charge of the trade business ( Networking).
I decided to leave City Cruises to achieve a new objective in my life. I travelled for 8 months around the world to understand different cultures, to integrate myself in new environment. As a marketer, traveling brought me new understanding of Cultural behaviour, new understanding of Tourism implantation, and especially new ideas for sustainable Tourism.
I am a very curious, positive,motivated person. My communication skills are very important to describe my personality. I am open-minded, diplomatic, honest.
My new challenge is to integrate a company which will give me responsabilities as a marketer.
