Global account manager growing strategic B2B relationships through forecasting, analytics, and team leadership.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Global Account Manager with 4+ years of experience scaling strategic B2B relationships. I grew a single account from $280K to $450–500K in monthly revenue while leading a client-facing team.
I’m known for cross-functional coordination and global client management, serving as the primary point of contact for strategic accounts. I negotiate pricing and coordinate complex international logistics and fulfillment requirements across vendors and internal stakeholders, while leading and developing a team of 2–3 personnel.
I combine data analysis and demand forecasting to anticipate client needs and deliver tailored, cross-border solutions. I also conduct weekly on-site customer visits to strengthen partnerships, uncover new opportunities, and proactively resolve issues before they reach the client.
Earlier in my career, I supported account operations through weekly invoicing across multiple billing streams, pricing accuracy verification, and inventory monitoring to prevent stockouts. I also handled administrative operations—including vendor communications and union reporting—using QuickBooks and Foundations, while completing an MBA in International Business.
