Meet Valentina – GME Coordinator
“”Being part of the GME team means being part of a daily exciting challenge. After kickstarting my career in the front-office department I followed my passion towards a more commercial role. This job allowed me to growth both personally and professionally. It gave me the opportunity of being responsible of my own development and, in only 9 months, reach a promotion. I love to be part of a creative, young and international team that have fun and make the business grow together.
