What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that challenges me and allows for career growth, within a collaborative and innovative company culture.

I am a seasoned professional with over 16 years of experience in recruiting, training, and leading high-performing teams in sales development and account management across India and the Middle East. My career has been marked by a successful track record in driving sales growth and managing business operations, with a keen ability to handle all commercial aspects involved.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated my capability to operate independently and manage remotely located teams, while fostering a culture of accountability and performance. I take pride in my ability to instill trust and motivation within my team, ensuring that we not only meet but exceed our sales quotas. My strategic approach to business development has led to significant achievements, including securing high-value contracts and establishing partnerships with global brands.

As I look to the future, I am eager to leverage my extensive experience in sales management and business operations to contribute to a dynamic organization that values innovation and teamwork. I believe in celebrating team successes and continuously pushing for excellence, and I am committed to driving results that align with the company's goals.
