Malina Gloaba

Business & Marketing Strategist. Business Relationship Manager

About Me

Good strategist & team manager, having both analytic and synthetic thinking, with relevant experience and results in the energy and retail industries. 12 years in the Marcom industry, developing commercial, positioning and notoriety strategies by creating the optimum BP, communication and commercial mix. More than 12 years as a marketer drew me the passion to evolve and understand strategies and objectives at a macro level. As a marketer you have to have a branched thinking but also a stratified line of thought so you can identify that mix that will impact the whole organization. Also called long term storytelling - developed right, each chapter can open tones of possibilities, therefore substantial opportunities to capitalize on and so, maximize the overall benefits and add value to the drawn objectives. To achieve this added value I concurrent acted for the last years as a both B2B and B2C Professional and a Business Relationship Manager.
