FOD Futures – Alex & Lewis

We’re well on our way into 2019 now and there have been plenty of new additions to the Fleetondemand team. Recently our Marketing/Sales team has had a few new members join. In this episode of FOD Futures we meet Alex and Lewis. This is what they had to say:

 

Alex

Name/Position/Where do you live?

Alex Bond/Digital Marketing Manager/Leeds

Where have you worked in the past?

I’ve previously worked at CallCredit in Leeds, and Lead Tech in Otley.

What was it about the company that made you accept a job here?

I love Digital Marketing as an industry, because it not only rewards creativity; it also relies heavily on analysis to find out what makes people tick. At the end of the day, everything a marketeer does should benefit businesses and their customers alike. With a huge potential audience. Fleetondemand and Mobilleo are so exciting for me because they represent an opportunity to do just that, I can’t wait to get started!

How have you found working at Fleetondemand so far?

I have only been here a short while, but I have already found everyone to be really friendly and open, and my team are a great bunch. I’m also a big fan of the Nespresso machine.

What do you do in your spare time outside of work?

I train to compete in outdoor swimming competitions, like the Red Bull Neptune Steps or the Great North Swim. It’s more fun than it sounds!

What are you looking forward to in the future of your career?

I’m looking forward to helping the business get recognised for all the amazing work it’s done, and making Mobilleo a globally recognised brand!

 

Lewis

Name/Position/Where do you live?

Lewis Murch/Digital Sales Executive/Bradford West Yorkshire

Where have you worked in the past?

I came from a background of travelling, working with young people, and Digital Marketing & Sales. This was moulded through various work experiences and jobs throughout, assisting me to get where I am today in the industry.

What was it about the company that made you accept a job here?

After having the interview I felt that the people within the work surroundings were very welcoming and polite, also having heard great things about working within the company around the benefits and how friendly it is throughout. The ability to grow and build yourself really appealed to me, and I love the fact that you can get involved with all aspects of roles within the company.

How have you found working at Fleetondemand so far?

I feel like I settled right into the team (as I usually have been felt left out when you start a new company), and they have given me a wide insight into what goes on in and behind the scenes within FOD & Mobilleo. It feels like a really adult company to work for where you have some control over what you do, and your opinion matters.

What do you do in your spare time outside of work?

Outside of work I run my own events company & clothing brand which I am kick-starting in 2019. I also DJ at various events and music festivals globally alongside producing music as and when I can with the aim of reaching bigger music labels and playing alongside various higher end DJ’s and producers. I also love to socialise and meet new people usually travelling alone to various places around the globe.

What are you looking forward to in the future of your career?

With my career at FOD/Mobilleo I look forward to gaining industry knowledge, and with that, knowing what to expect next and how to deal with it promptly. I am also looking forward to seeing how my role develops in the hunt for the Digital Sales Manager.
