What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters collaboration, innovation, and growth in a remote-first environment.

I am a Strategic Account Manager with over two decades of experience in leading global B2B sales and partner success across diverse regions including Europe, UK, MENA, and APAC. My expertise lies in building and nurturing long-term client relationships, managing complex sales cycles, and aligning cross-functional teams to deliver high-impact solutions.

Throughout my career, I have successfully leveraged CRM platforms such as Salesforce and HubSpot to streamline processes and enhance client engagement. I am adept at navigating remote work environments, leading distributed teams, and facilitating asynchronous collaboration with stakeholders across multiple time zones. I am eager to apply my strong foundation in commercial strategy and global account management to dynamic roles in SaaS, technology, or mission-driven sectors within remote-first organizations.
