What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead revenue growth with end-to-end ownership of the sales pipeline—mentoring teams, building strong qualified pipeline, and consistently hitting KPIs while negotiating partnerships that drive sustained net new revenue.

I’m a highly experienced Sales and Business Development expert with over 4 years across different industries, consistently clearing KPIs and setting new standards. I’ve generated £12.5m+ Sales Qualified Pipeline and produced £2.2m+ Net New Revenue, while earning “Salesman of the Year” in ’23 & ’24 and being promoted to Head of Sales in one year.

In my most recent leadership role as Head of Sales, Marketing & Customer Acquisition, I led global sales and customer acquisition strategy, mentored a high-performing team, negotiated key partnerships, and delivered client presentations that drove sustained revenue and brand growth. I also run entrepreneurial ventures—Momentum Lift (CEO/Founder, sole operator, $10k MRR) and Click Alchemy (Co-Founder)—combining hands-on sales execution with end-to-end pipeline ownership.
