Description

As the world of work has become increasingly digital, digital skills are essential for early career and experienced professionals in all industries. In this session we’ll be joined by Irina Ionescu, Senior Analytical Lead at Google and UCL School of Management Alumna who will share insights on how digital skills and analytics have become increasingly important in her work and the work of others in Google.
 
In particular, she’ll focus on her work leading analytical projects to accelerate business growth for Google’s largest clients in film, beauty and gaming, and how the use of data analytics helps her to deliver high impact projects for her clients.

Insights will include:

  • Using youtube data to analyze Hollywood film trailers and which parts resonate most with target audiences
  • Using Google search + location data to uncover where film fans live, influencing marketing budget allocations releases
  • Using Google search data to identify opportunities in the beauty industry where there is a high demand for products that are not currently available in store
