I build transport and logistics revenue through client relationships, pricing strategy, and international sales.
What I'm looking for
At CTT Express, I manage the full business development and sales cycle in transport and logistics, from prospecting and market analysis to commercial offers, negotiation, and long-term client retention. I use CRM tools and Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central to manage client data, monitor performance, and develop pricing strategies.
Previously, at Wine People, I developed international markets and client relationships, including commercial agreements secured at ProWein. My background also includes hospitality leadership in London, supplier negotiation, cost management, and leading teams of up to 30 people.
