NigeriaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Sales Representative & Business Development Officer currently at DOOU ENERGY Limited, focused on developing and executing sales plans to achieve product and service targets. I source new bid opportunities through platforms like NIPEX and e-market portals, manage bid submissions, and register the company as a vendor with major IOCs digitally and in person.
Previously, as Sales & Business Development Officer at WestAfrican Book Publisher Limited (May 2022–2024), I increased revenue to #62.4M in 2 years by implementing a new business strategy. I exceeded sales goals, reaching 107% of target (#37M in sales), secured over 50 new partners and customers, and improved reporting through weekly geographical sales reports.
I bring a proven mix of negotiation, market and competitor analysis, and client retention—converting qualified leads and supporting clients after sales by gathering feedback. I also prioritize compliance with legal and ethical standards in contract preparation, maintaining accurate sales and payment records while reporting progress to leadership daily.
