What is your current role?

I have been working at MDLZ since March 2021 as the LA E-Commerce Growth Acceleration manager, previously I worked for 10 years for L’Oréal Group as an e-commerce specialist. I lead Latin America eCommerce Growth Strategy for B2C and D2C. I am responsible for the LA eCommerce acceleration plan, developing mid and long-term e-commerce strategy for the MDLZ – Improving our performance on Full Basket, Single Item, MarketPlaces, Last Millers (or Quick Commerce), and Direct-to-Consumer website. Also, I oversee the LA teams’ capabilities building plan, how to win in grocery online / Flywheel Platinum Project and others. I work with our Global/BU teams to integrate and align our new ways of work.

The people, for sure! Working with an incredible team, that fully believes in what we have been doing! We are changing the way MDLZ does business, creating a strong integrated strategy to win as a leader in Digital Commerce. It involves all the company's areas, from commercial to marketing, from supply to finance. I am delighted to be part of this! Also, the agility and the vision make me feel comfortable to excel! Agility instead of perfection, test & learn is the MDLZ digital team mindset.

What is your view on working from home, a hybrid model and the way MDLZ handles this?

This is fantastic! I love this way of work and how it influenced me and the teams. I have created a home office to generate the best energy and creativity that my role needs. I feel better now, and it reflects on my deliverables. It is very cool to see how the company responded in a hybrid model, balancing the industry’s needs and the employee’s well-being during the covid pandemic, providing the tools, systems and training to adjust to new work models.
