Kim Noakes

I'm a marketing professional with a strong background in the food and beverage industry, leading trade programs, creative campaigns, and cross-functional projects from concept to execution. I’ve managed timelines, budgets, vendors, and creative assets to support both national brand launches and regional retail initiatives. Now, I’m looking to focus my career in creative project management—bringing together my organization skills, creative eye, and collaborative approach to help teams deliver their best work.

I have over a decade of experience in marketing within the food and beverage industry, with a focus on trade marketing, brand activation, and project coordination. I've led national retail campaigns, managed cross-functional creative projects, and overseen everything from asset development and vendor management to event execution. My work spans wine, wellness, and sustainable brands, where I’ve built programs that drive awareness and sales.

I’m highly organized, detail-oriented, and thrive in fast-paced, collaborative environments—skills I’m now channeling into a career in creative project management.

I hold an MBA, which gave me a strong foundation in business strategy and marketing. Most recently, I completed the Google Project Management Certificate to build on my practical experience and formalize my skills in project planning, workflow management, and cross-functional coordination—especially as I transition into a creative project management role.
