GOPA Com.

Being a close partner of the European institutions is something we have built over time. As a company, but also as individuals, we have grown together with our client partners, adapting to the new policies, cabinets, approaches, and always thriving to evolve our offer.

I am elated to embrace the position of Director of Services and Projects at GOPA Com., a role that affords me the privilege of making substantial contributions to the company's growth and influence.

I believe people breathe life into an organisation, making it more than a profit-making entity. My role as People Manager lets me nurture this life force, ensuring a harmonious, inclusive and productive environment for everyone. 

As a Senior Project Manager with over a decade of experience, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise in leading complex 360° communication campaigns in the European Union Member States and in third-countries. I am passionate about EU communications.

As a Senior Project Manager, I run complex, 360-degree multi-channel communication campaigns for the EU institutions. What fuels my passion for this role is the diversity and significance of the topics we handle.

Working as Senior Project Manager feels like a long journey since I started back in 2014 as Project Coordinator. My role involves (but is not limited to) managing complex 360° communication projects, with events being my passion and main background.

Working with events is not just a job - it's a passion that continually inspires me to push the boundaries of what is achievable. The past decade as Event Manager at GOPA Com. has been an unbelievable human adventure that has taught me to embrace diversity and overcome obstacles with creativity. 

My role at GOPA Com. allows me to combine two elements I appreciate the most in my professional life: people and strategic thinking. Whether building relationships or strategies, my favorite thing about GOPA Com. is the freedom and support to develop expertise, grow as a team, and continuously look.

As a Creative Director, being a people person is crucial, considering that most of my work revolves around engaging people with European projects and values. My inaugural project at GOPA Com. involved producing content and running a promotional campaign for Citizen Panels.

As an AV Producer, I am responsible for overseeing the creation and execution of audio and visual content for various media, such as television, live events, presentations, and digital platforms. I collaborate with audio engineers, camera operators, editors, etc.

In our multicultural office, I have the pleasure of sitting between a Japanese and a French colleague. I am Spanish, and being surrounded by other cultures not only makes my life more interesting, it makes our collaboration more fruitful.

My role as Editor in Chief at GOPA Com. has given me the amazing opportunity to contribute to a wide range of projects implemented by the European Union's various services and agencies, both in Europe and around the globe.

I've always believed in the transformative power of digital communications. Its limitless potential to reach and engage citizens anywhere has revolutionised the way we connect with our audience. Social media, in particular, has proven to be an invaluable tool and a dynamic platform for communication

All the values that the EU transmits give passion and purpose to my daily work. Thanks to GOPA Com., I am working closely with impactful projects in the European neighbourhood, such as the promotion of EU Code Week or the Cancer Screening Campaign developed by DG SANTE.

I like to describe my job as a Motion Graphic Designer as a way to enhance the visual appeal of various elements, particularly concepts that require a deeper explanation.Given the very low attention span of the general public, it's a challenge to create attractive and engaging videos.

At GOPA Com., I witnessed 150 randomly-selected citizens engaging in thoughtful debates on unfamiliar topics, thanks to the EU and DG COMM. This experience left a lasting impression as individuals transformed into experts on subjects discussed over months.

Since becoming a part of GOPA Com., I have been given incredible opportunities to expand and enhance my administrative, negotiating, and problem-solving skills. As an Account Coordinator, my responsibilities include thoroughly reviewing requests from start to finish.

Having started to work as journalist, in a fairly complex social and political environment (after the fall of the  communism) allowed me to gather very different relevant skills. I enjoy a lot the brand-new approach we have taken at GOPA Com. with our local agencies' network, GC Local.

As Account Manager specialised in events, I mentor teams and lead projects ensuring their smooth and efficient delivery. My experience ranges from organising European Maritime Days to scientific meetings, high-level meetings, as well as organising the participation of the EU at fairs world-wide.

As Director of the Business Development department, my role is to lead and manage a team of Bid Manages and Bid Coordinators to develop persuasive and impactful proposals.My challenge is to think like clients and stakeholders at the same time, understand their needs, limitations and preferences.
