What I'm looking for

I am seeking a dynamic role in a forward-thinking company that values innovation and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am an accomplished Head of Marketing with extensive experience in developing and implementing marketing strategies that maximize resource yield and enhance customer relationships across Europe, the USA, and the Middle East. My current role at AL-Rajhi Industrial has allowed me to spearhead the creation of a new marketing department, resulting in a remarkable increase in sales by US$ 35 million within a year. I pride myself on my ability to negotiate effectively with banks and clients, ensuring smooth operations in import and export activities.

Throughout my career, I have successfully launched marketing campaigns that have not only expanded our market reach but also introduced innovative control systems for shipment management, leading to a 15% reduction in overhead costs. My previous experience as Logistics Import & Export Manager at Scandinavian Overseas Paper Co. and as Executive Manager at Itochu Corporation has equipped me with a robust understanding of the logistics and banking sectors, further enhancing my ability to drive business success.
