What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead B2B revenue growth as a sales leader, partnering with C-suite stakeholders, building high-performing teams, and using data-driven market insights to beat targets in regulated Energy or Healthcare markets.

I’m a strategic sales leader with 11+ years driving revenue growth across the Energy and Healthcare sectors, including a 7-year focus in Oil & Gas (LPG) and 4 years in Healthcare medical sales and pharmaceutical distribution. I build resilient, cross-functional teams and use data-driven market analysis to capture emerging opportunities—consistently exceeding multi-million-dollar quotas.

As Head of Sales at Ultimate Gas Limited (Jan 2021–Present), I’ve supported a multi-channel sales rollout and helped scale revenue from ₦9.4B to ₦50.5B (over 437% growth). I’ve improved customer retention by 68%, supported LPG bottling plant construction with 100% regulatory and operational readiness compliance, and prepared 4+ quarterly LPG market reports annually for NNPC Limited to inform pricing and national market reviews. Previously, I increased divisional revenue by 32% through optimizing LPG distribution networks and improved retention by 58% via home delivery expansion; at Mecure Healthcare Limited, I grew revenue from ₦5.4M to over ₦24.3B while delivering large-scale medical screenings and end-to-end blood collection/logistics with strict quality control.
