She is our well-respected business developer: Sara Barros das Neves. The driving force behind the entire sales process, one of the most important representatives of Parkd and above all a great addition to our team.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We thought it was time to put her in the spotlight!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hey Sara, thank you for your time! How do you start your day?<\/h2>\n

Hey! My alarm clock is usually set at 8 o’clock, then I get up and drink a cup of tea to wake up. Usually I have breakfast with yoghurt and fruit, and I prepare my lunch at home. Today it\u2019ll be a healthy sandwich.<\/p>\n

After breakfast, I hop on my bright red bicycle and ride towards the office. I’ve been using it for years now, but he still rides quite well! In the winter, I try to take the bike as much as possible, and keep myself warm with a thick woolen scarf. But I prefer cycling in the sun, a day like this is obviously a lot nicer.<\/p>\n

When I arrive at Rotterdam Central Station, I park my bike in the underground garage, and I walk into the building. The elevator takes me to the 4th floor, from there I walk to the office. Parkd is located in the CIC, an office space where all kinds of innovative companies are located. It is a lively place!<\/p>\n

What is your background before you came to Parkd?<\/h2>\n

I am currently in the final year of my studies, business administration at the Erasmus University, here in Rotterdam. I also have experience in ‘property & asset management’, or real estate management at operational level.<\/p>\n

Business development is a very instructive job for me, here at Parkd. I have already learned a lot from my job, and I think I\u2019ll learn a lot more in the future!<\/p>\n

\"Sara<\/p>\n

What do your daily activities look like?<\/h2>\n

My job consists mainly of establishing and maintaining contact with (potential) customers. I always use LinkedIn to help me on my way. It can be quite a hassle to get to the right person.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m usually busy with e-mailing and calling companies. And that works very well! Sometimes, I go to an appointment and I also meet the person who is on the other side of the line. The personal interaction definitely makes my job fun and varied.<\/p>\n

Is there a project you are proud of?<\/h2>\n

I find it very cool to be able to see the result of my work. There is clear growth in the number of connected cars, partly due to my efforts. I am also very proud of the team; we work well together and there’s a positive atmosphere!<\/p>\n

With my colleagues, we keep track of the number of appointments on our ‘sales-board’. I am, to the frustration of my colleagues, also very proud that I am currently leading the way! \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

What do you do after your work day?<\/h2>\n

I regularly go for a game of squash after work, with a friend of mine. I try to do this once or twice a week.<\/p>\n

If I\u2019m not playing squash, I cycle to the supermarket and then I\u2019ll go home to prepare some dinner. I like cooking by the way, and usually I also eat together with my roommates. Really great!<\/p>\n

In the evening, I occasionally go into the city to see my friends, or stay at home on the couch. With a good movie or some good company. Sometimes I have to finish something for my work, but luckily this does not happen too often. Usually I can just relax!<\/p>\n

Sounds good! Thank you for the interview, Sara.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1491,"template":"","class_list":["post-1507","newsitem","type-newsitem","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nA day in the life of Sara Barros das Neves - Parkd<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Sara Barros das Neves.
