Web Analyst since September 2018 and have absolutely loved the whole experience
so far! Digital is a part of Marketing which is growing considerably and has
been an area I’ve always enjoyed, especially after studying it as a module in
2 sayand year. I have built on so many of my skills working here, not
only on my understanding of Digital Marketing but also more generically which I
can take with me going forwards.
Forensics and Klipfolio which allows me to put both my creative and analytical
sides to use within my role.
Lead Forensics is a B2B Lead Generation Software Tool which
enables us to reveal the identity of our anonymous traffic and turn them into
actionable sales leads. The tool allows me to see all the activity and interest
from external companies in Ricoh’s product and services, from which I can then
decide whether an account should be created for the Sales team to follow up!
Klipfolio is an online dashboard platform which allows us to build real-time
dashboards which are clear and informative. I use data from social media and Google
Analytics (for example) to create and design dashboards which display
information to be viewed by the Marketing department and even board members.
Digital to apply for this role, and even if you have an interest outside of

business and even other parts of Marketing, such as events, which has been
wonderful as it has pushed me to grow!
