What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role that fosters growth, collaboration, and impactful projects.

I am a dedicated B2B Project and Sales Manager with extensive experience in client acquisition, relationship management, and project oversight. My role at Selective-Partners involved managing projects in the tourism and hospitality sectors, particularly in the luxury segment. I excel in due diligence, valuation, analysis, and sales, ensuring that client needs are met with precision and care.

Previously, I worked as an Accounting Agent at Prizeotel and RCI Life Ltd., where I honed my skills in customer management and financial documentation. My experience with SAP and bookkeeping for multiple hotels across Europe has equipped me with a strong foundation in financial operations. Additionally, my time as a project manager for UNICEF allowed me to develop my event planning and stakeholder management skills, further enhancing my ability to lead successful projects.
