Why you should invest your time in me
Hello, is it me you're looking for?
You already know my name but that's it... Let's change that!
I'm currently a Sales Operations Manager with almost 8 years of experience in the marketing and sales industry.
But let's talk about what's really important – what makes me unique and sets me apart from the crowd.
For starters, I'm a proud Portuguese who loves to explore new cultures and places. I believe that diversity is the spice of life, and I bring that same passion for exploration to my work.
I'm always looking for new ways to innovate and drive success, and I'm not afraid to take risks to get there.
But don't let my sense of adventure fool you – I'm also a results-driven, collaborative, and adaptable team player. I've got a knack for communication, which allows me to work effectively across teams and projects. And when it comes to staying up-to-date with the latest trends and technologies, I'm always ahead of the game.
When I'm not busy working, you can find me exploring new places, curled up with a good book or traveling around.
So, if you're looking for an Operations Manager or a true Leader for your Team, who's equal parts curious, adventurous, and results-driven, then let's connect and see how we can work together to achieve your goals. Can't wait to chat!
DO YOU WANT TO KNOW THE REAL ME?
Because it's not always about work, I invite you to know a little more about my personal world.
Nowadays, I believe you should know who we are in real life.
If we are going to be part of a professional culture then why not start now?
So, welcome to my space! Take a look around.

RECOMMENDATIONS
Working with Margarida in the Marketing area was a bless! She delighted our team with her great empathy and creativeness. Especially her knowledge about social media, recruitment channels and job add-trends gave a greater value to all of our results. I would recommend Margarida to every employer who would like to have a committed employee with extensive Marketing knowledge and outstanding soft skills. Margarida, I am thankful that I could go along with you in my professional career!

Incredibly efficient is what comes to my mind when I think about Margarida's work. Being a part of the German Recruitment team as an International Recruiter, I work with Margarida for about a year and often we need to change ideas about new creative ways to use the different marketing channels (both offline and online) to improve our results and reach more candidates. Her ability to manage the multiple campaigns is unlike anyone I’ve seen before and makes a huge difference in the productivity level of our team. She quickly understands what we’re trying to achieve and often surprises us with new ideas we wouldn’t come up with.
Always having a smile on her face, Margarida makes sure that everytime someone is working directly with her won’t be disappointed and on top is benefiting from her amazing energy and teamwork skills.
As a Digital Marketing Expert, she is a great asset to any team!
