What I'm looking for

I seek a sales or business development role where I can drive international revenue growth, manage key accounts, and lead multicultural teams in a collaborative, results-driven environment.

I am a trilingual Sales Manager with over 10 years of experience in international trading, business development, and client management across B2B and B2C markets in Switzerland, France, and Africa.

I have a proven track record in prospecting, customer retention and revenue growth, including developing a 3-client B2B portfolio generating +275k CHF annual turnover, securing multiple B2C contracts, and increasing client portfolios by 500k CHF/year.

I bring hands-on experience in trading energy products (~25 kCHF/month in transactions), CRM platforms (HubSpot, Salesforce, MS Dynamics), merchandising that delivered +15% premium sales, and team leadership with experience managing key accounts and teams.
