My name is Valentina. I'm a marketer with more than three years of experience in European and international companies across FMCG, premium cosmetics, home goods and technology. I graduated from The Hague University of Applied Sciences with a Bachelor of Business Administration in International Business.
In the Netherlands I worked on content, product and research. At Originalhome my content for the brand's international social media raised engagement by 10%, at Keune Haircosmetics I led the launch of a limited international collection and my product concepts increased product adoption by 15%, and at Syntechno my market and competitor research helped improve product positioning by 12%. I then moved into brand management, and at Sintec I supported the growth of four brands with a portfolio of more than 100 SKUs.
I'm now looking for a chance to grow in the marketing team of a large company, where I can apply my analytical approach and international experience. I work fluently in Russian and English, use Yandex Direct and Yandex Metrica in my work, and back up my practice with professional certificates, including AI for marketing.
Outside work I'm inspired by travel and by how differently brands speak to their audiences in different countries, from ad campaigns to shop windows and packaging on the shelves.

My experience
Originalhome
On the marketing team of a home goods brand, I helped strengthen the company's presence on the international market. I created content for the brand's social media and website, analysed the market and looked for new partners. In 5 months engagement grew by 10% and the B2B client base expanded by 8%.
Keune
When the brand decided to release a limited international collection, I led the project from the first concept and design through to market launch. Alongside the launch I handled email marketing and worked on the brand's content, pitching ideas and approving finished materials before publication. Within 5 months the product concepts I developed became a finished collection, and product adoption grew by 15%.
Syntechno
To help the company position its product more precisely on the international market, I spent four months analysing the market and the competitive landscape. My strategic recommendations to management helped improve product positioning by 12%.
Sintec
At Sintec I supported the growth of 4 brands with a portfolio of more than 100 SKUs. I helped prepare annual business plans and marketing campaigns, produced monthly brand performance analytics for the team and ran joint projects with the sales and production departments.
International perspective
I've worked with companies in the Netherlands and internationally, from consumer brands to B2B, and I'm used to seeing the market through the eyes of different cultures and audiences. European approaches to marketing are hands-on experience for me, not theory from case studies.
From idea to launch
I know a product's journey from the inside, from the first concept to market launch and beyond. At Keune I led the launch of a limited international collection, and at Sintec I supported four brands with a portfolio of more than 100 SKUs, taking part in everything from business plans to campaign evaluation.
Data-driven decisions
My finance background and research experience taught me to test ideas with data. My market analysis at Syntechno helped improve product positioning by 12%, and in my work I use Yandex Direct, Yandex Metrica and AI tools.
I know the customer first-hand
Working directly with customers at Rituals Cosmetics, I saw what really drives a purchase decision, and I met and exceeded the store's daily revenue target. I bring this understanding to every marketing task, whatever the product or channel.
