DIGITAL GROWTH MARKETING MANAGER
Bonjour!
Je suis John.
Votre Digital Marketing Expert.
Industry-certified digital marketer with 10 years of work experience. Previously worked in Germany, Singapore, and the Philippines, I am based in Lille, France, where I recently completed my Master’s Degree in Digital Marketing and Customer Relationship Management (CRM). I would like to explore a new market and help companies grow their brand and business value through digital marketing and CRM.
I have been more than 10 years in digital marketing, and have helped dozens of international companies to grow their business.
Master in Digital Marketing & CRM
For over 10 years, my career revolved around digital and the web in marketing agencies, B2B, and B2C clients.
Having started as a web developer in the Philippines, I worked in the international markets in Singapore where I wore many hats that gave my understanding of digital marketing its unprecedented depth and breadth: content developer and community manager, SEO specialist, digital advertising performance manager, head of digital.

Years of Digital Marketing Experience
My Work Experience
