What’s your favourite part about working at GummyBear?

Straight off the bat the culture is supportive with a touch of winding you up…the perfect balance. Passion is a good thing!

A ‘normal’ day at work?

There will be no such thing as 'normal'…I’ll be involved in everything that is going around the business community in our region and around the country.

What challenge(s) have you seen in our industry that you would like to fix?

There seems to be a limited knowledge around what is involved for effective social media marketing and how a good website should look & operate. I intend to be an interpreter to the masses.
