Commercial and sales professional driving growth through strategic partnerships.
What I'm looking for
As a dedicated Commercial and Sales Professional, I have a proven track record of establishing strategic partnerships and driving significant revenue growth across various sectors. Currently, I am at Zio Health, where I have successfully built foundational partnerships with NHS and US private hospitals, enhancing market readiness and product profitability through innovative pricing models and comprehensive market research.
Previously, I served as the Head of Sales and Marketing at Spun Candy, where I fast-tracked to leadership within two years. My efforts led to a remarkable 500% sales growth in just three months for US e-commerce, alongside securing over 50 top-tier partnerships that boosted B2B revenue by 35%. My ability to negotiate major retail deals and expand international reach has consistently delivered outstanding results, as evidenced by campaigns featured on prominent platforms like Business Insider.
With a strong foundation in biological sciences and a commitment to effective communication and collaboration, I thrive in dynamic environments where I can leverage my skills in revenue growth strategy, critical problem-solving, and team motivation to achieve ambitious goals.
