Sharing passion and knowledge, and enjoying life<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

\u201cSince I joined OneChocolate, I have gained in experience and autonomy, and it has only confirmed my choice of a career as as a Press Officer. I have learnt a lot and am now able to fully assist Account Directors, while passing on what I know to interns and junior colleagues.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Throughout her career at OneChocolate, which started in December 2017, Alexandra first held the position Account Executive before becoming Account Manager in September 2020. Her position requires her to work closely with the Account Directors, the Managing Director and her junior colleagues to implement the PR strategies of the agency’s clients. She is passionate about always seeking the best opportunities for these clients. Being a true adept of teamwork, she also enjoys transferring her knowledge, since her responsibilities include intern recruitment and training.<\/p>\n

Daughter of a musician, music lover and David Bowie fan, Alexandra quickly knew she wanted to pursue a career as a Press Officer. Indeed, after a master\u2019s degree in international and societal relations in English and a thesis entitled \u201cThe influence of rock\u2019n\u2019roll on the American Youth in the 1950s\u201d, she started working in PR for an agency specialised in tourism. There, she met Bernadette Py, who greatly influenced her choice to become a Press Officer. To quote Alexandra: \u201cThe crash of a Malaysia Airlines plane \u2013 one of our clients at the time \u2013 in 2014 and the crisis management that ensued was a major event that definitely confirmed my passion for this job.\u201d<\/p>\n

Having developed an interest for the English language from an early age, she now has the opportunity to use it every day at OneChocolate since most of the agency\u2019s clients are based in English-speaking countries. \u00a0She sees herself as a motivated and involved collaborator, who takes pleasure in her work. As she facetiously puts it: \u201cIf I had to choose one superpower, it would be the ability to read the minds of journalists.\u201d However, her interest in her work does not prevent her from enjoying life to the fullest \u2013 a life she shares with a developer, which is a great asset in an agency with so many IT solutions clients! As a reader, she is fond of Jeffrey Eugenides\u2019 work and she found a great source of inspiration and a true model of perseverance in her grandmother, who \u201cat 45, decided to become a caregiver and did all she could to achieve her goal, despite the many obstacles that stood in her way.\u201d She hopes that one day, she will be able to demonstrate the same strength of character in both her private and professional life.<\/p>\n
