Yannis Triantafyllou

A seasoned senior marketing director, with 20+years experience in organising and implementing marketing, B2B sales & business growth plans, I have worked on management roles with noteworthy technology groups in Greece and Europe.

Being a results-driven professional with strong motivational and communication skills, team player spirit, strategic thinking and analytical and creative mind, I have built over the years a success record organising and running projects and business units, acting as manager (and interim) in a multinational environment, coaching team members to achieve goals, ensuring smooth development of business and communicating effectively with market.

I have been introduced to marketing through mathematics (my studies) and written communication. Having worked since university years as journalist and editor for trade journals and publications, I specialise today in writing, editing and engineering marketing content. Over the years I also developed to an experienced public speaker, active as instructor, presenter and moderator on conferences, exhibitions, corporate events and training sessions. I am practicing digital marketing since 2000 and am involved with social media, blogging and online community management since 2006, being also in the organising committee of the major Social Media conference in Greece.

My business skills, which I continuously enhance and improve, encompass specialties like corporate & technology marketing, community management (online & offline), social media, marketing communications, creative copy writing & editing, new business development (inlc. networking & lobbying), marketing process organisation, sales management & training, negotiations & crisis management.

These specialties in Marketing, Content and Business Development, plus my expertise and entrepreneurial spirit, i offer when working as advisor to entrepreneurs and SMEs and am looking to apply, even full-time, as director of local and international firms.
