Here’s an interview with the newest member of our team, Gail Wooderson, who we’ve brought over from the UK to work on the Account Management side. She brings with her a huge amount of experience from many years working for top clients and we’re delighted to have her.
Name:Gail Wooderson
Job Title: Account Manager and Copywriter
Where are you from? South West London, Clapham to be precise
What brings you to Spain? After many years of working at large London advertising agencies I decided to scale down and go freelance so that I was less tied and could come and go between London and Spain which is a country I love. Working with Shaw Marketing Services gives me the chance to be involved in interesting projects in Marbella, my chosen location.
Today we are speaking to Silvina Navarro, Marketing and Sales Executive at Shaw Marketing Services about her life in Spain and her work with the company.
Hi Silvina, where are you from?
I’m from Buenos Aires, Argentina. There I trained to be an Interior Designer and worked in the field of art and design. Art and design were always my strengths, but sales was in my blood from my father who was a born salesman!
What brings you to Spain?
I’ve studied English since I was very young and have always been in touch with foreigners to practice my English. This gave me the drive to travel and get to know other cultures. I visited New York first and then came down to the Costa del Sol in 2000 for a holiday. The weather and the tranquillity on the coast has made me stay here ever since and 11 years later I think of the Costa del Sol as my home.
What have you been doing since you came to Spain?
I have worked in Real Estate for a while (like many of us do when we arrive on the Costa del Sol) but I dedicated myself to create an online decoration and interior design company and thanks to this I discovered the importance of marketing and advertising for driving a business forward.
Eva George has been working with Shaw Marketing Services since March 2011 as a Marketing Assistant. Here’s an interview with her so you can get to know her better.
Hi Eva, it’s great to have you working with us at the company, tell me a bit about yourself, let’s start with where you’re from and why you came to Spain?
I’m from sunny Suffolk, in England. Apart the obvious perks of Spain like the weather and lush beaches, I came here to live a better lifestyle and focus on the things I love most, like writing. The coast is a very inspiring place to live, and the possibilities are endless.
How long have you been here for?
I’ve been living here for just over 6 months! Since arriving in Spain, I’ve been lucky enough to land a job I love with Shaw Marketing Services. I’ve learnt so much in a short amount of time, and been lucky enough to have some of my written work and photography published. I’ve worked with some great clients, and some major publications while working with Georgina, writing press releases, organising photo calls and press conferences, writing articles, and helping to promote various campaigns.
