Digital Marketing Specialist in SEO, content strategy, social media management, and multi-channel campaigns.
Based in Cork, Ireland · Open to full-time roles · Stamp 1G (eligible to work full-time)
I'm Sandra - a digital marketer with six years of work across content, SEO, and social media in some genuinely unusual corners of the industry. Gaming startups. Web3 platforms. Education. Dental clinics and HVAC companies in Australia. A national nonprofit in Ireland.
What connects it all is the type of work I do: content that ranks, campaigns that grow communities, and copy that gives brands something real to say. I've written press releases distributed through PRNewswire, grown social accounts from zero to 100K followers across six platforms, and helped businesses in Melbourne rank for thousands of search terms they weren't on the map for before.
I completed my MSc in Marketing at University College Cork in 2024 - graduating with a 2:1 and picking up two awards along the way. Right now, I'm looking for a marketing team in Ireland where I can bring that mix of creative instinct and data discipline to a role that uses both.
