I grow client revenue through consultative sales, RFPs, and complex event delivery.
United Arab EmiratesWhat I'm looking for
At Level UP Travel and Lifestyle, I own 20–30 client RFPs each month, turning enquiries into tailored proposals, commercial agreements, and delivered events. I've managed approximately AED 3.5M in closed revenue against an AED 4M target.
I build practical solutions from ambiguous client requirements, covering concepts, itineraries, budgets, presentations, supplier sourcing, and on-ground operations. My projects range from corporate events and incentive programmes to conferences and MICE experiences for 3,000+ attendees.
At Fairmont Bab Al Bahr, I helped drive an 18% year-over-year revenue increase through events, group dining, activations, marketing, and operational improvements. I also developed recurring cruise-season business through commercial negotiation and relationship management.
I bring hospitality-led client service, consultative selling, and hands-on operational experience to every commercial conversation. I'm comfortable managing stakeholders across time zones, protecting margins, and finding value beyond price.
