Salman Karim
@salmankarim1
I support CEOs and boards by driving executive operations, reporting, stakeholder coordination, and strategic follow-through.
What I'm looking for
At AKIJ Resource, I provide executive and business support to the Managing Director & CEO, coordinating strategic priorities, schedules, meetings, correspondence, reporting, presentations, and cross-functional follow-through. Previously, at Zeeshan Group, I initiated Quarterly Review Meetings and prepared management reports and visual presentations for quarterly reviews and the Annual Sales Conference.
I've supported Boards, presidents, chairmen, and senior leaders across operations, finance, HR, procurement, administration, and stakeholder management. At JAT Holdings Bangladesh, I established the Credit Control sub-department and recovered BDT 1.6 million in bad debt through nationwide collection activity, customer visits, and legal action.
