About

As a sales specialist with over 10 years working experience with some of the world’s largest technology solution and cloud platform providers, I have acquired a strong customers service experience together with strong sales exposure while working both as a Consulting Sales Representative as well as a Renewals Sales account manager. Throughout my experience both on the local and the international technology market I have acquired strong communication skills, a personal approach to the business combined with an eagerness to constantly over-achieve. I have been constantly in the top ranks of the teams that I worked for and I have been constantly surpassing the key figures expected for me to deliver. I have a strong customer focus acquired while working both as a Key Account Manager for a local IT BPM company and as a Support Account Manager for the UK Region.
