Just a minute with Joy Umeh

 

Just a Minute with... Joy Umeh

Just a minute with...Name:  Joy Umeh 

Job Title:  Graduate Xline Consultant 

My background: I went to Maynooth University and studied International Business and French. I guess the French doesn't really relate to my job role, but a language is always a valuable skill to have!  

First app checked in the morning? That depends, if I walk to work, I check the weather app - I'm not a fan of walking in the rain. If not, then the first app I'd check is TikTok. It's a bad habit! It's part of my New Year's resolution to use it less frequently.  

What's your favourite travel location? I visited quite a few cities in France when I studied there in 2021/22. But my favourite location would be Carcassonne in the southern part of France.  The city has a medieval castle/ fortress (Cité de Carcassonne) which gives it a magical vibe- I felt like a princess!  

Are you a coffee or tea person? I'm a tea person but only herbal teas (peppermint and green tea)! Nothing else.  

What three items would you take to a deserted island? I'd take my Bondi Sands Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50, a good book (preferably anything romance or crime) and lip-gloss! 

What do you love about the job? I love my team. They have good banter, and everyone gets along really well! It's great working with a group like that!

I joined Intact’s marketing team in October 2023. My academic journey began at the University of Liverpool, where I studied English language and literature. Feeling that one degree wasn’t enough, I stayed and earned a Master's degree in creative and critical writing. During my studies, I wrote for various platforms, including a student newspaper and a famous Liverpool attraction. I knew I wanted to pursue a career where I could write daily, leading me to explore the world of content marketing. At Intact, I compile and write content for our website, upsell campaigns, customer newsletter, and manage our social media channels. The best part of my job is the opportunity to interview colleagues, seeking their insights and knowledge for valuable content, and that each completed task is followed by ten uncompleted ones. Outside of work, I’ll be at the gym, out for a run (jog), or exploring markets in London with friends.
