What I'm looking for
I am an experienced account manager and sales leader with 12+ years spanning financial services, fintech, NGO, SaaS business, automobile, FMCG, and dealers ecosystems. I specialize in business relationship management, building trust-based partnerships, and driving measurable growth through business development, account strategy, and stakeholder satisfaction across the Nigerian market.
In my recent roles, I lead and manage business relationships with auto dealers, expand footprints in my territory, and increase loan disbursement through structured onboarding, analysis, and account planning. I also bring HR and operational depth—handling recruitment, onboarding, training, payroll/benefits, and process improvement—while using analytics tools and automation mindset (Power BI, Excel, MySQL, AI automation and prompt engineering) to improve decisions, performance, and customer/merchant outcomes.
