What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers growth opportunities and values strong client relationships.

As an Account Manager with a proven track record in B2B and B2C enterprise sales, I excel in managing key accounts and identifying growth opportunities. My experience includes successfully managing a portfolio of 95 SME accounts, where I achieved average monthly sales of approximately £27k with a consistent profit margin of 24.6%. I am adept at collaborating with operations and logistics teams to enhance service delivery and resolve client issues, ensuring that I deliver tailored solutions that drive sustainable business outcomes.

Previously, I worked as a Sales Executive, where I consistently closed inbound sales with an impressive conversion rate of 23% and generated around £60k in sales revenue. My ability to negotiate terms and pricing effectively has allowed me to secure commitments that meet both individual and team sales targets. I pride myself on my strong communication skills and my ability to build lasting relationships with clients, which I believe are key to achieving success in sales.
