TMC x NorthCo Presents: Career Pathways in Marketing

Let’s be honest - no two marketing careers look the same 😅

Some kick off in agencies, others in brand teams, and many take a few unexpected detours along the way.

At our next panel event in Melbourne, you’ll hear from a group of marketers at different stages in their careers as they unpack their unique paths, the turning points that shaped them, and the lessons they’ve picked up along the way.

You'll hear from:

• Tasleem Ahmed Fateh, Founder at Robinhood Agency
• Brianna Nixon, Creative Director at Willow & Blake
• Zara Jarvis, Senior Social Media Specialist at The Digital Picnic
• Rosie Chong, Social Content Manager at Melbourne Social Co AND Personal Brand Gal

And MC'd by Chanel Clark - Founder of The Marketing Club


Whether you’re just starting out, looking to level up, or curious about where your marketing career could take you, this session will give you insider insights, actionable advice, and a fresh perspective on the many pathways in marketing.
