Iain Wilcox

I am a 2009 graduate of Glasgow Caledonian University with a Chartered Institute of Marketing accredited 1st Class honours degree in Marketing with Media. During summer 2008 I was lucky enough to be selected as a Saltire Foundation Undergraduate Intern, and worked on an ambitious market development project for SPIE - The International Society for Optical Engineering in Bellingham, Washington state. Working closely with senior management, I conducted market research exercises to find the best value prospects across the globe for this niche organisation. Prior to this in 2006 / 2007 I also worked on self-arranged separate advertising placements at Frame (Scottish Marketing Services Agency of the Year 2006) and SolutionM in Glasgow. I am also winner of the Marketing Society Scotland's Stars of 09 'Champions Of Marketing Excellence' student of the year award, and Glasgow Caledonian University's Chartered Institute of Marketing prize for academic excellence. In July 2009 I was invited to work for digital agency Realise in Edinburgh, where I am their first ever graduate trainee. I am fully committed to the Saltire Foundation, and intend to stay closely involved with this fantastic charity into the future.
