Outbound appointment setter and lead qualifier for enterprise B2B pipeline growth.
What I'm looking for
I’m a multilingual outbound sales professional with 10+ years booking meetings, qualifying leads, and building pipeline for enterprise B2B teams. I’m comfortable carrying a high daily volume of calls, emails, and outreach across time zones, while staying disciplined about logging every conversation accurately and handing off well-qualified opportunities. I open conversations with decision-makers up to C-suite level, handle objections, and keep a large pipeline organized without letting anything slip.
In my recent role as Senior Account Executive & Implementation Manager, I ran self-generated outbound and qualified opportunities through structured discovery, contributing to €2M in new account revenue and 11.5% YoY portfolio growth. I also coordinated complex scheduling for renewals, check-ins, and escalations across CET/EST/GMT time zones for enterprise clients, maintaining clean forecasting through Salesforce CRM logging and follow-up cadence. Previously, I sourced new business through outbound prospecting to drive $7M in closed contracts, and I’ve led and coached client-facing teams—including building a customer excellence framework—so I bring both high-volume execution and a strong rapport-building mindset.
