What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a remote Sales or SDR role where I can create immediate commercial impact—owning outreach, pipeline, and closing—using Apollo.io and AI-assisted workflows, while building long-term client relationships in B2B environments.

I’m a results-driven sales professional with 20+ years of commercial experience, starting in high-pressure door-to-door sales in Italy and evolving into B2B business development in London. I’m currently a Founder & Sales Director building recurring-revenue partnerships in specialty coffee, and I bring a practical, execution-first mindset to every sales cycle.

I built a B2B pipeline from scratch targeting the London hospitality sector and am currently closing contracts with Michelin-starred restaurant groups. I manage prospecting through to contract and retention, using Apollo.io for targeted outreach, sequencing, and meeting booking to keep pipeline momentum and conversion rates high.

Alongside Renoir Coffee, I also founded Renoir Digital, shaping a commercial proposition for digital services to SMEs and using AI-assisted workflows to accelerate delivery and outreach. My approach blends modern tools with disciplined outreach—cold outreach, follow-up strategy, pitching, and negotiation—so prospects move from interest to signed agreements.

Earlier roles strengthened my stakeholder communication and relationship management at senior/director level, including leading sales performance and KPIs in a premium 5-star hotel environment. I’m fluent in Italian and work professionally in English, and I’m now looking for a remote Sales or SDR role where I can bring immediate commercial impact.
