Violet Tan

I am a driven and goal-oriented individual who believes success comes through consistent hard work and determination. Recognised for my strong sense of ownership and effective communication, I have been entrusted with multiple leadership opportunities in both academic and professional settings. These experiences have strengthened my leadership and critical thinking skills, particularly in managing diverse teams and organising events. Inspired by Singapore’s position as a global trading hub, I am passionate about trade and business development and seek internship opportunities in trade, B2B sales, or business development to contribute meaningfully and further build the skills needed for a long-term managerial career.

I have hands-on experience in business development, sales, and marketing across the technology, finance and e-commerce sectors. As a Business Development Intern at SHOPLINE, I supported B2B growth by generating leads, building e-commerce websites, and creating tailored marketing materials and pitch decks. I also assisted in executing digital campaigns across platforms such as YouTube, LinkedIn, and Instagram. At Prudential, I further developed my communication and marketing skills through client engagement and sales support. In addition, my role as an event staff member at We Got This strengthened my teamwork and coordination abilities in dynamic environments.

I am pursuing a Bachelor of Business Management at Nanyang Technological University, specialising in Business Management, and will be focusing on International Trade with a minor in Maritime from Year 2 onwards. My studies build on a strong foundation from my Diploma in Business Management, Marketing, and Related Services from Nanyang Polytechnic, where I graduated with Merit. Beyond academics, I have been actively involved in student organisations such as the Union Orientation Committee Pageant and Hall 13 Orientation Subcommittee, taking on roles in publicity, welfare, and leadership that strengthened my teamwork and organisational skills.
