Message

At Qodea, I serve as the dedicated Customer Success Manager for its largest MSP customer, a leading financial services firm. I supported the development and deployment of a bespoke MiFID II compliance SaaS application, translating customer requirements into technical specifications and advocating for their needs throughout delivery.

I oversaw application testing, user acceptance testing, and go-live support, while helping address deployment risks in a highly regulated environment. I also monitor usage and performance and work with the product team on customer feedback and ongoing optimization.

Previously at Qodea, I managed key accounts, developing customer success plans to support adoption, product value, and retention. I tracked customer health and worked with product, sales, and support teams to address risks and inform product enhancements.

Earlier, I managed IT service delivery at Qodea and led an application support team at Appsbroker Ltd. My experience also includes Tier 2 application support, technical support coordination, service desk knowledge management, and technical analysis.
