I drive profitable sales growth, pricing transformation, and high-performing commercial teams across Energy and FMCG.
What I'm looking for
I've led commercial transformation and profitable growth at Liquigas-SHV, improving gross margin by four percentage points and delivering 5% revenue growth and 12% LPG volume growth across Central Italy.
As Sales Director, I improved sales productivity by 30% through CRM optimization, Salesforce adoption, and stronger forecasting. I built and led regional teams across six regions, strengthening accountability and execution.
I also led Liquigas's national Salesforce rollout as Product Owner, supporting more than 120 salespeople and improving sales productivity, forecasting accuracy, and customer visit discipline. In Customer Service and Commercial Operations, I raised FCR to 80%, CSAT to 92%, and reduced outsourcing costs by 50%.
Previously, I ranked Avon’s South Italy division #1 in Italy and improved recruitment by 32% while reducing consultant turnover by 25%. At Api, I turned EBITDA from -5% to 7% within 24 months and increased volumes by 22%.
