What I'm looking for
As a seasoned Business Development Manager with over 7 years of experience, I have honed my skills in sales, client services, and marketing. My expertise lies in managing and expanding key client relationships, where I have successfully developed and implemented business strategies that drive sales growth. I pride myself on my strong leadership abilities and my knack for complex negotiations, which have consistently resulted in exceeding sales targets.
Throughout my career, I have held various roles that have allowed me to build a comprehensive understanding of the sales cycle. From my time as a Senior Sales Manager at OPay, where I established a full-scale sales operation, to my current position as an Account Executive at Relay Commerce, I have demonstrated my ability to prospect, qualify leads, and close deals effectively. My experience managing sales teams and collaborating with marketing and product teams has equipped me with the insights necessary to provide valuable market intelligence and drive product adoption.
I am passionate about building strong relationships with clients and ensuring their satisfaction through regular check-ins and tailored solutions. My analytical skills and ability to communicate effectively have been instrumental in my success, and I am eager to bring my expertise to a dynamic organization that values growth and innovation.
