@ibtissemslema
B2B Sales Representative and EN–AR language professional delivering client-ready translation and training solutions.
TunisiaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a multilingual professional combining B2B sales execution with English–Arabic translation, terminology management, and corporate communication training. With experience delivering language services and training in academic and business settings, I focus on clarity, accuracy, and client needs while handling multiple responsibilities in international, cross-functional environments.
In my current role, I lead end-to-end B2B sales cycles—from prospecting and lead generation to negotiation and contract closure—using CRM systems to optimize pipelines, monitor KPIs, and maintain accurate forecasting. Alongside sales, I develop business-facing language materials (including automotive sector Business English), support departments and teams with communication skills, and deliver high-quality EN–AR translations using CAT tools such as SDL Trados Studio and MemoQ.
