Open to Project Manager and Marketing Manager roles in content, e-commerce & digital · Berlin

Liliia Shumyk. I launch brands and run the projects behind them.

Project and marketing manager with a hands-on creative background.

I launched an online shop that brought €80k in its first year, opened three business locations in Berlin and built a brand from zero. I plan the work and manage people, vendors and budgets. When it helps the project, I can also make the content myself.

About

Hi, I'm Lili

I'm a marketer and content maker from Kyiv, living in Berlin. I like brands that have real people and real places behind them.

I spent three years building the content of a handmade ceramics brand, then managed Meta ad accounts for 40+ clients at Concentrix. After that I co-founded a dog grooming business in Berlin and built its brand from scratch: the visuals, the social channels, the shop, the price lists, and even the paintings on the salon walls.

What I enjoy most is setting things up: plans, budgets, teams and SOPs. Because I can also film, write, design and paint, I understand the creative work I manage.


Selected work

Three brands, built hands-on

Each case shows the creative side and the operations side, because in every one of these roles I did both.

Making creative pay for itself

Sales & Digital Marketing Expert

A portfolio of 40+ small business clients advertising on Meta. This is where I learned to read the numbers behind content, and to test until something works.

95%+client retention

How I work

From brief to playbook

How I run a project, whether it is a new location, a shop launch or a campaign.

01 / Scope

Define the goal

Goals, budget, timeline and who needs to be involved. I write it down so everyone works from the same plan.

02 / Build

Line up people and vendors

Suppliers, contractors and the team. I negotiate, schedule and keep the budget in view.

03 / Pilot

Test small, then launch

I try changes in one place first, check the numbers and adjust before rolling them out everywhere.

04 / Systemise

Write the playbook

What worked becomes SOPs, templates and reporting, so the team can run it without me.

Project & team management

I plan, coordinate and report, and I keep the work moving as the business grows.

Marketing & creative
