What I'm looking for

I seek a client-focused role leveraging my insurance, finance and leadership experience—ideally in a collaborative firm that values strategic advisory, sales growth, and ongoing professional development.

I am an insurance and finance professional with extensive experience in key account management, team leadership, and independent advisory services for corporate and private clients. I have a track record of developing sales networks, advising on investments and holdings, and providing end-to-end client support across insurance, banking, and investment products.

My career spans roles as Key Account Manager, Area Manager/Team Leader, Director, and self-employed advisor, where I led teams, managed client portfolios, and participated in strategic company decisions. I bring deep domain knowledge in insurance, investment funds, finance, leadership, and corporate development, and I seek to apply these strengths to deliver measurable client value and business growth.
