    DCI are one of Europe's largest inkjet and toner remanufacturers. As the only UK-based German speaker, I worked as the liaison between the UK head office / manufacturing locations and the German-based sales office/distribution centre. I spent 50% of my time in each location, with the office in Germany being located in the Karlsruhe area. I attended meetings with customers in both the UK and Germany including large, well-known retailers. As an Account Manager, I worked with buyers to coordinate promotions, plan marketing support and maintain a good relationship. My responsibilities also included running the company’s various social media networks through the Hootsuite platform and I successfully increased the number of followers/engagement. I was involved in the creation and development of a new e-commerce platform. I was part of a team who decided on the overall design of the website, liaised with web developers, attended an SEO course and I planned promotional social media & blog content and advertising campaigns. We also revamped packaging designs across the whole product range, including for major, international retailers.
