What I'm looking for
I am a strategic and detail-oriented Deal Desk Manager with over 5 years of experience in the SaaS industry.

I have a proven track record of accelerating deal velocity, streamlining workflows, and enhancing profitability in fast-paced enterprise environments.
At Deel, I lead Deal Desk operations supporting sales across EMEA and APAC regions, optimizing pricing and approvals using Salesforce CPQ, which has reduced deal cycle time by 20%.
