About Candice

Hi, I’m Candice, a Marketing Assistant at Erwin Hymer Centre Travelworld, where I turn my passion for content creation into engaging content across Instagram and YouTube. My role allows me to be involved in the entire creative process, from coming up with fresh ideas and filming content to editing videos, designing graphics and developing social media campaigns. Whether I’m creating Instagram Reels, filming YouTube motorhome walkthroughs or capturing moments from events, I love finding creative ways to tell a story, showcase products and connect with an audience. Working in a specialist industry means I’m always looking for new ways to make content stand out, bring a brand to life and turn something people might not know much about into something they genuinely want to watch. No two days are the same, and that’s one of the things I love most about what I do! Why I Deserve to Win Content creation is a huge part of my everyday working life, and I put so much passion, time and creativity into what I produce. I don't just press record and post; I’m constantly thinking about the idea, the audience, the editing, the message and how I can make each piece of content better than the last. From creating short-form videos designed to capture attention on Instagram to producing longer YouTube walkthroughs that give viewers a real insight into our motorhomes, I work across different formats and platforms to keep content fresh, engaging and relevant. I also balance the creative side w

Proudest achievements

  • One of my proudest achievements has been discovering a career that genuinely excites me and allows me to combine my creativity with my ambition. Since working in marketing at Erwin Hymer Centre Travelworld, I’ve discovered a real passion for content creation, from brainstorming ideas and filming videos to editing, graphic design and finding new ways to engage an audience. What started as part of my role has grown into something I genuinely love, and I’ve enjoyed pushing myself outside my comfort zone, learning new skills and taking on more responsibility along the way. I’m proud of how much I’ve developed, both creatively and professionally, and I’m excited to see where this career takes me. For me, the biggest achievement is finding something I love doing, being able to make a real impact through it and knowing that I’m only just getting started.

About Candice's team

Behind every successful marketing department is a great team, and for me, that team is April and me! April has been a key person in helping me grow in confidence, develop my skills and discover my potential within marketing. Her support, guidance and trust have given me the opportunity to challenge myself, take on new responsibilities and explore my creativity. With her on my side, I've been able to learn, grow and find my own feet in an industry I genuinely love. While I've put the hard work in, I know I wouldn't be where I am today without the encouragement and opportunities she's given me. I'm incredibly grateful to have a manager who believes in me and helps me become the marketer I aspire to be.

The journey

In 2024, I was living and working in Hurghada, Egypt, genuinely believing it was where I'd spend the rest of my life. I loved the life I'd built there and never imagined I'd end up taking a completely different path. But after returning to the UK for Christmas, I came across an opportunity at Erwin Hymer Centre Travelworld. I made the decision not to return to Hurghada, and in February 2025, I started a new chapter that would change my career in ways I never expected. Looking back, it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. When I joined Travelworld, I never expected to discover such a passion for marketing and content creation. Since then, I've developed my skills, pushed myself creatively and taken on new responsibilities that have helped me grow both professionally and personally. My manager, April, has played a huge part in that journey, believing in me, encouraging me and giving me the confidence to realise what I'm capable of. My journey hasn't been about having everything figured out; it's been about taking a chance, embracing the unexpected and being brave enough to choose a different path. I went from thinking I'd spend my life in Egypt to discovering a career I'm genuinely passionate about, and I couldn't be happier with how things have turned out. Sometimes, the decisions that change your life are the ones you never planned to make.
