This Spotlight Interview is with our fab Account Executive – Lucy Walker
How did your career start in Partnerships & Marketing?
My career in Marketing started when I studied Marketing at Bournemouth University.
Who would be your dream brand to work with?
My dream brand to work with would be Redbull. I love their cool and unique marketing concept that is edgy and different to anyone else’s.
What has been your favourite Partnership you have worked on whilst at Mando?
My favourite partnership I have worked on whilst at Mando is with the National Gallery and seeing how a variety of brands can come together to connect with the art and the history behind it all.
If you could do any job for just one day, what would it be?
I’d love to be a Pilot and to see everything from a different perspective.
What’s a fact about yourself that surprises people?
I used to be a county Hockey and Lacrosse player for Surrey and Berkshire. I kept playing up until Uni but then decided to give it a break and haven’t picked it up since, which is my New Year’s resolution for next year!
What did you want to be when you were younger?
I wanted to be a forensic scientist. Not sure this worked out, but I do love a crime documentary if that counts.
If you could have a new skill overnight, what would it be?
If I could learn a new skill overnight, it would to be fluent in another language. I’ve always wanted to learn Spanish or Portuguese, so I would love to be able to speak it fluently. My family live in Portugal so this would help me out massively.
Who has influenced you most when it comes to how you approach your work?
Probably my Grandad, he was very hard working and resilient, and always worked in jobs that he enjoyed which is something I always want to do too.
If you won the lottery, what’s the first thing you would do?
If I won, the lottery I would book a once in a lifetime holiday to New Zealand for my entire family. I would also book a fun trip for all my friends too. Then I would probably start thinking about doing something smart with it, like investing it somewhere and buying a house with no mortgage.
If you could travel to anywhere in the world, where would it be?
I would love to go to Hawaii, it’s somewhere that has always appealed to me but a bit of a nightmare to get to. Hopefully one day!
