What I'm looking for

I seek a role that values collaboration and offers growth opportunities in strategic partnerships.

I am a dedicated Alliances Manager with a proven track record in driving growth through strategic partnerships. Currently, I work at Amplifi Data Consultancy, where I conduct market research to identify new partnership opportunities and build strong relationships with stakeholders. My ability to manage multiple partnerships simultaneously while meeting deadlines has significantly increased inbound partner leads and overall revenue.

Prior to my current role, I served as a Police Constable, where I honed my decision-making skills and adaptability in high-pressure situations. My experience in law enforcement has equipped me with the ability to handle sensitive situations with empathy and professionalism. I am committed to fostering collaboration across departments and integrating sales, marketing, and consulting efforts to achieve common goals.
