@christianleon
I build sales functions and close complex enterprise deals across fintech and financial services.
What I'm looking for
I've generated revenue and built sales functions across fintech, payments, wealth management, tax, carbon markets and B2B SaaS. Through Cora Latitude, I lead fractional sales engagements that have generated $500K+ in new client revenue and currently own commercial strategy, pipeline and revenue performance as a fractional CCO.
I've delivered $1.5M+ in new ARR at Monoova, generated $1M+ across APAC at Ryan, and sustained and grew $1B+ in funds under management at BT Financial Group. I bring consultative C-suite selling, complex deal structuring, go-to-market strategy and hands-on experience building playbooks, pipeline and teams from scratch.
