General Manager at Facility Paraguay who redesigned five business units and grew net profit fivefold.
What I'm looking for
At Facility Paraguay, I run five business units as General Manager, Head of Operations and Products. I redesigned their commercial and operational processes, helping grow net profit fivefold in five months with no increase in headcount.
I also redesigned product formatting, marketing and lead acquisition, and grew the company YouTube channel from 20,000 to 104,000 subscribers. I map bottlenecks across business functions and turn client needs into operating rules and service specifications.
At Integros, I moved from Closer to Customer Success Manager and expanded average customer value from around US$900 to up to US$12,000 through longer contracts and renewals. I onboarded and advised customers, tracking each account against agreed objectives.
Earlier, I managed sales operations for three developments at Lminas Imoveis and coordinated a team of six agents. My background also includes eight years managing financial and administrative processes in the Brazilian Air Force, a law degree, postgraduate degrees in Corporate Law and Applied Finance, and teaching Bitcoin and self-custody online.
