Jaakko JÄRVENSIVU

In my current position my duties are similar to an export manager: I have been building an export retail and distribution network for a new and innovative functional berry products from Finland.

I have mainly focused on the German and French markets, as well as other central European markets. I have used German and French, as well as English.

My work began with target market analyses, identifying the key players. I have created and translated marketing texts to the market languages, after which I have contacted the key personnel.
I have also been handling the CRM.

On top of this I have participated in planning the logistics network and I have identified and put out to tender key logistics providers. I have also participated in business negotiations and promotional trips.


PAST:

I have strong experience in marketing and sales - also on an international level. Experience from b2c: campaign planning and management, marketing automation, content creation, sales, CRM management, social media strategy, international distribution network building, international trade fairs.

Experience from b2b: independent b2b marketing campaign management, CRM management, company analyses, business field analyses and market reports - also international.

One of my strong points would be the ability to quickly analyse new information and coming up with relevant conclusions, usable for marketing or sales. I am a very good team player and I regard myself being innovative and being able to see the bigger picture quickly.

I have also written magazine articles and content marketing texts as a freelancer. I can create quality content suitable for the target group and the chosen platform - also on a tight schedule.

I have excellent language abilities: near native level English - both written and oral. I can also use professionally French, German and Swedish. I have also studied Russian and although not on perfect level yet, I am working on improving the level.
