Jean-Patrick Ferrier
@jean-patrickferrier
Business development professional driving B2B growth through international sales, partnerships, and customer success.
What I'm looking for
I’m a multilingual business development professional with 10+ years of international experience across B2B sales, supplier relations, customer success, and business support. I focus on building durable relationships, spotting growth opportunities, and turning conversations into measurable results.
In my current role as a Sales Representative in International Supplier Relations, I manage supplier relationships across India. I negotiate pricing, lead times, and purchasing conditions, identify new supplier opportunities, and coordinate sourcing and order follow-up.
Previously, as a B2B Sales Development Representative at PayPal, I generated and qualified B2B opportunities through outbound prospecting by phone, email, and digital channels. I also managed sales pipeline activities using CRM tools and partnered with Account Executives to support revenue growth, then brought a customer-first mindset from my customer support experience.
Earlier in my career, I worked as a Maps Data Analyst validating geographic information and performing quality control through data analysis. I also delivered technical support for hardware and software troubleshooting, reinforcing how much I value accuracy, clear communication, and problem-solving for end users.
