Sales Executive specializing in composite materials and customer relationships.
What I'm looking for
As a Sales Executive at BDA Materials, I manage end-to-end sales processes for composite materials, particularly in the sporting goods industry. My role involves overseeing sales across Southeast Asia, where I build and maintain strong relationships with customers and suppliers. I am dedicated to ensuring seamless communication and mutual growth, which has been pivotal in delivering consistent sales growth.
My experience includes conducting market research to onboard new suppliers, expanding our product offerings, and implementing a CRM system to enhance team efficiency. I have coordinated our participation in multiple trade shows, managing logistics and customer engagement to boost brand visibility. My extensive travel, including a year-long assignment in China, has allowed me to manage customer accounts effectively and identify new business opportunities.
Previously, I interned at OMNI Mold, where I conducted testing and analysis on additive manufactured parts and supported the transition to Industry 4.0. My early career also included an administrative role at Uber, where I improved document management efficiency. I hold a Bachelor of Engineering in Materials Science and Engineering from Nanyang Technological University, where I actively participated in various extracurricular activities.
