Close job description

I was given excellent training to be able to quickly respond to and solve customers' technical issues on several Google properties like Google Search Ads, Google Shopping, Google Display Network, YouTube and Google Analytics.

That is where I learnt everything about PPC and Google Ads. Investigating and solving customers' queries was the best way to explore and get hands-on experience in all aspects of the Google ad products.

I got passionate about PPC very quickly and that helped me achieve great results in terms of customer satisfaction (94%), case resolution time (93% cases resolved within the deadline) and new features customer adoption (always met and often exceed targets).

My strong performance allowed me to move forward to a more operational role where I was optimising Google Ads campaigns for large customers on behalf of Google account managers.

That is where I learnt how to manage large accounts through Excel, Google Ads Editor and Google Sheets integrations.

The knowledge and experience gained there gave me the ability to take charge of the PPC strategy of a large eCommerce brand like Easons.com

Personal Traits

Team Player

I love working in a team, inspiring and getting inspired by others. Success can only be achieved when working together. I consider myself a humble and helpful professional that always goes the extra mile when required by the team.

Committed

I try to focus my energy and time on few but important aspects of my personal and professional life. I love my work and therefore I am very committed to it. This makes me a reliable coworker that always does what he says, within the agreed timeline.

Honest

I believe in open and honest communication. My coworkers know that I tend to say what I think, which saves a lot of time and energy to the team. Of course, communication also needs to be effective and for this reason I always practice empathy when my opinion clashes with someone else's.

Accountable

I'm not afraid to admit my mistakes. I've done many in my career and I've always felt accountable for my actions. Fixing potential issues that my actions caused is always a priority.

Curious

This is probably the first adjective people who know me would use when describing my personality. I always try to learn everything I can about topics that interest me or I feel committed to. This might include a sometimes awkward amount of questions to my coworkers and friends :)

Work in Progress

Project & People Management

My current role requires me to manage several stakeholders as well as the work of my team. Therefore, I'm now on a journey to improve project and people management skills. I'm doing so thanks to several tools and courses provided by my employer.

Manager-level communication skills

My current role requires a more senior communication style, which I'm learning thanks to mentors and tools provided by my employer.

Javascript

I'm on a constant Javascript learning journey. My focus is on Javascript for digital marketing, which I am studying on the Simo Ahava's "Javascript for Digital Marketers" online course at teamsimmer.com.

SQL

I'm improving my SQL skills thanks to the Simo Ahava's "Google BigQuery and Google Analytics 4" online course at teamsimmer.com.
