What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a growth-focused role where I can own revenue targets, expand markets, and strengthen client relationships—combining sales strategy with digital marketing execution in a fast-moving, cross-functional team.

I’m a Business Development and Growth professional with 8+ years of experience across India and Oman, leading B2B sales, client relationship management, and business operations. I focus on building strong partnerships, identifying growth opportunities through market research, and turning strategy into measurable revenue outcomes.

As Co-Founder & Business Development Manager at Muttrah International Business L.L.C., I managed end-to-end business development and sales operations for a garments startup—covering customer acquisition, B2B/B2C account management, procurement, inventory management, supplier coordination, and operational planning. I also supported business strategy, pricing decisions, and expansion initiatives while conducting competitor analysis to guide growth.

Previously, I strengthened client outcomes and retention through roles including Account Executive at Waasta—where I planned and executed Facebook and Instagram advertising campaigns—and Relationship Manager at Bonito Designs, where I achieved monthly sales closures averaging approximately USD 70K by managing end-to-end client relationships. I bring a collaborative, startup-ready approach that blends negotiation, digital marketing execution, and cross-functional coordination.
