@atakanbayritug
Senior business executive driving global growth, M&A, and sales transformation.
What I'm looking for
I am a senior business executive with over 25 years' experience in global business development, sales leadership, and strategic operations across Europe and the U.S.
I have founded and led multiple consultancies and interim leadership assignments, driving M&A, tax and legal optimisation, company launches, ERP and tech roll-outs, and rapid client acquisition.
In senior corporate roles I have directed sales organisations, delivered dramatic revenue growth (examples include 1420% and 790% sales increases), negotiated major technology contracts, and implemented cost-saving and process-improvement initiatives.
I bring hands-on experience in financial forecasting, channel and product management, international market expansion, and team building, and I focus on delivering measurable commercial results and scalable organisational change.
