Get to know Melanie
Melanie has been working as a Marketeer at TransHeroes since 2022 and mainly focuses on the content side of marketing. From managing websites and social media to writing SEO texts, photography, video production and editing, she ensures that TransHeroes maintains a recognisable and creative presence. Her work is varied, and it's precisely this mix of writing, visuals and creativity that makes her role within the marketing team such a good fit.
What do you enjoy most about your work?

What I enjoy most about my work is the variety of tasks. One day I'm optimising website content to improve our visibility on Google, and the next I'm working on an email campaign or holding a camera to take photos or shoot videos. I particularly enjoy the latter because it allows me to really express my creativity.
I also really enjoy the atmosphere at TransHeroes. I have amazing, friendly colleagues, and the collaboration within the marketing department is great too. We can easily exchange ideas, help each other when needed, and there's always room for humour.
How would your colleagues describe you?
I think my colleagues would describe me as calm, sociable and spontaneous. Well, at least I hope so! I'm quite introverted, but when I feel comfortable, I can be pretty extroverted. I just don't think everyone has seen that side of me yet.
What do you enjoy doing in your free time?

In my free time, I exercise quite a lot. I go to the gym at least three times a week, regularly go running, play padel with friends and go bouldering with family once a month.
Travelling is also a huge passion of mine. I absolutely love travelling (and travel a lot) with my boyfriend to faraway and unique destinations. In the four years I've been working here, we've visited no fewer than 15 countries, and my bucket list just keeps growing. I regularly hear colleagues say, "Are you going on holiday again?" or "Where's your next trip going to be?" Some colleagues even come to me for travel advice, which I always really enjoy!
I also have a great passion for photography, and my camera always comes along on my travels to capture the most beautiful shots.
What's something people might not know about you?
I think many people don't know that I really enjoy cooking and baking. I love trying out new things, but especially eating them afterwards. Something else not many people know is that a few of my travel photos have been published in a book called Verliefd op Azië.
