1. Hi!
MynameisMariaBerglund,adrivenandmultitaskedProductionManagerandGraphicDe-
signerwithfifteenyearsofexperienceandahighattentiontodetails.Iamhighlyskilledwhenit
comestomarketingstrategies,graphicdesignandbrandmanaging.Ihaveapassionfordesign
andeagernesstomentorandelevatewithothercreativepeople,thereforIallpyforanewjob.
I am an outgoing, experienced and structured Production Manager and Designer who
easily finds unexpected ways to solve problems. I am self-motivated, creative, organized
and have a high accountability. I enjoy being part of, as well as leading, a successful and
productive team. I am driven by new ideas and love to find solutions on various tasks.
I have a Bachelor of Science in Graphic Arts Design & Business Economics from Högs-
kolan Dalarna. Furthermore I studied PDD in Illustration at West Herts College in Lon-
don and Graphic Design and Illustration at Forsbergs Skola, Stockholm. So I have a solid
knowledge of both strategic communication and visual design.
At present I work as Communications and Brand Manager/ Senior Graphic Designer at Sogeti
in Stockholm working mainly with the Nordic countries but also globally. My focus is strategic
responsible for the Sogeti Visual Brand and I manage our guidelines for our Graphical Design
and Sogeti Apps, as well as the new global Guidelines for the Sogeti Offices and our Social
Media Visual Guide. I am also building up relations with and creating a network of partners
and suppliers. Apart from the strategic work I coordinate lots of various projects daily, for ex-
amples the production of roll-ups, give-aways, posters to the offices or exhibition stands for
events. In addition to that I produce and coordinate advertisement campaigns, leaflets and web
invitations as well as interior design projects and social networking. I have also just finnished the
developement of a new online system for manageing our events (design of invitations, posting
on the web as well as manageing and overviewing klicks and sign ups) and another online service
for all our newly taken Sogeti photographs (taken specially for us from a manuscript). So I have
a solid understanding of both online and offline productions.
One of my main interests is interior design and I often design my own furniture, inspired by
my surroundings. I love to exercise, preferably running or yoga. I also love to throw a party or
watch a film with family and friends or maybe have a quiet moment by myself, reading a book.
I am sure my positive attitude and my various skills will be an asset for you and the team.
Best regards
