I grow travel technology revenue through B2B sales, partnerships, and market intelligence.
What I'm looking for
At Amadeus IT Group, I deliver competitive intelligence and strategic positioning for revenue-generating travel technology solutions including MasterPricer, MetaConnect, and InstantSearch.
I've spent 15+ years growing travel-industry sales, partnerships, and market development. As a pre-sales consultant at Amadeus France, I generated more than €200K annually in B2B sales of training-intensive IT and GDS solutions while supporting complex negotiations and renewals.
I also built Le Cireur de Paris into a B2B/B2C service business generating €350K in revenue, leading client relationships and training new team members.
My background includes cross-functional conversion projects at GO Voyages, operational team leadership at FedEx, and productivity-focused training at DHL Express. I bring commercial acumen across distribution, partner onboarding, account management, and team coaching.
