Brand manager of the week - Tess Tucker, Head of digital marketing, Just-Eat.co.uk

- What would you be if you weren't a brand manager?

I'd love to be a travel writer. Unfortunately I don't quite have the required writing skills.

- What advice would you give someone starting their marketing career today?

Keep up to date with trends, work hard and have fun.

- What attracted you to your current job?

The rare opportunity to join a fast-growing international company based in London.

- What is your favourite ever marketing campaign?

I am currently a bit obsessed with QR codes or new technology that connects offline with online - so would have to say Tesco in Korea recreating the grocery store using QR codes on station poster sites.

- What's your greatest ambition?

After a few more years in marketing I'd like to set up my own business. I'm waiting for a genius idea to strike ...

- Do you have a marketing mentor?

Yes - Mat Braddy, our chief marketing officer, whom I have had the pleasure of working with for a few years now. He didn't tell me to say that, honest.

- If you weren't you, who would you be?

Ideally I'd be a cat. Sleeping and eating all day sounds good to me.

- What marketing trend is dominating your job at the moment?

Rather predictable answer - social media and mobile.

- What hobbies do you have?

Not sure it counts as a hobby, but I am slightly addicted to Words for Friends on the iPhone.

- If you had three wishes, what would they be?

More wishes, more wishes and more wishes.

- What is your all-time favourite slogan?

'Just do it' springs to mind. Not sure it's my favourite, but it's the most memorable for me.

- What is your favourite pub?

Anything with a garden works.

- What's your favourite holiday destination?

My best holiday yet was driving around California, Utah, Arizona and Nevada in a Mustang convertible.

- If you could get tickets to any event, what would it be?

I'd switch my Olympic 2012 tickets (shooting and fencing) for the men's 100m final.

- What have been your best and worst freebies?

Aren't all freebies good?
